She was a strong, successful lady, and a great PM who helped change the world and destroy the awful evil commies. Don't necessarily go for all her economic theories, but apart from that she was too much of a leftist for one's own tastes.
And she presided over the sound thrashing of the Argies in the Falklands, which was a good thing.
Pity about her retirement from public speaking, but I am not alone in wishing this delightful old lady a happy and fulfilling retirement, that is most well deserved.
