Didn't she ask to be buried at sea? to spite all those dancing on her grave

It is natural that when someone who was in the public eye dies that people will reflect on the public side of that person, and on a discussion board people will discuss.
As has been said Thatcher divided opinion, and its interesting to see some of the comments on here.
Personally I did not like her politics or much of what she stood for, but having had family members suffer from alzheimers, including my grandmother who died from a stroke in probably not too dissimilar circumstances one can feel compassion to the person, her family and friends. However that would not change my opinion of her as a politician, but are two sides of a coin. She was the politician and yet as much as I dislike in fairly strong terms what she presided over I am saddened over another death in such circumstances.0 -

I do not and never will understand the need for the lefties to spout vile hateful comments about someone who passes away, just because they held a different political ideal.
Yet there doesn't seem to be the same response when the shoe is ont he other foot.
Humility is a wonderful thing when used appropriately and can say so so much about a person.Sealed pot challange no: 3390 -

Maybe she speaks of the previous socialist governments housing policy? Or their glove handed approach to financial crisis?Sealed pot challange no: 3390
