R.I.P Maggie.
Some would be happy some would be sad. That's life.
Glad this thread didn't break out into a stupid political argument. Then again most of us were too young or weren't even born to really understand the experience of life under Thatcher.
For those that do remember life under Thatcher ... you are no spring chicken.
My dad loved her her, my mom didn't care and her brother thought she was the scum of the earth. All this I gathered as a tiny tot in the late 80s.
My parents prospered under her rule so I have no complaints towards her. As for many in Ireland, and those in the North East of England in the 80s going hungry with hungry kids it would be somewhat different.
If I was one of those that lived in the North at that time I wouldn't be too sad she is gone.
