http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-22067155 Former Prime Minister Baroness Thatcher has died at 87 following a stroke, her spokesman has said. Lord Bell said: "It is with great sadness that Mark and Carol Thatcher announced that their mother Baroness Thatcher died peacefully following a stroke this morning." Baroness Thatcher was Conservative prime minister from 1979 to 1990. She was the first woman to hold the post. Her family is expected to make a further statement later. RIP 5 Likes |

I bet people are celebrating in Scotland and Northern England, right about now... She wasn't perfect and she destroyed a lot of people's lives including the minorities... All those who lost their jobs and all the black kids who were left in foster homes because of the hardship she created for their immigrant parents might have something to say about her... And Africans will also have something to say about her support for the apartheid regime in South Africa... However, she was a nationalist who was loved and adored by her conservative base and by most English people from the South... The UK will never forget the Falklands War.. Adieu!! You're better on the other side... 19 Likes |

I just saw the news on Bloomberg Television. Once called 'Iron Lady', Margaret Thatcher was one of the racist hawks who saw nothing wrong about the then Apartheid government in South Africa. She even called Nelson Mandela a terrorist, and ANC a terrorist organization! She's joined her buddy Roland Reagan. Well, God decides when its time up.... 11 Likes |

adaobi123: You dont know anything about this woman that's why you said that - she destroyed the livelihood of working class people in this country and encouraged selfishness, individualism and greed - the only beneficiaries of her draconian economic policies were the rich and the banking elite - she completely decimated jobs in the northern part of England and i can tell you that the average british person will not mourn her departure. 8 Likes |

cap28: The harsh comment was banter thing. Even though dying ain't a good thing. Of course I know about this woman. My dad came to England during her time as prime minister and I know it was very hard for him and he just basically suffered. |

cap28: You should speak for yourself please. She turned the British economy around by placing emphasis on productivity and entrepreneurship. Understandably the lazy loafers who are so dependent on government handouts would not like her. Britain is much better for her administration and those with their heads properly screwed on their shoulders would wish she were PM now to take the drastic measures needed to revamp the economy that is now in doldrums again after many years of Labour handouts to lazy bums. BTW, why don't you come to Nigeria where everyone is just sharing the Niger Delta oil wealth and producing next to nothing ![]() RIP Margaret Thatcher, Iron Lady. 11 Likes |

The American Congress made up of Democrats and Reagan's Republicans did the same thing. BTW, she had been sick with dementia among other things for quite a while hence this must be a relief to her and her loved ones. |
