I have no wish to get into a flame war today, so..

RIP Margaret Thatcher. For a state educated woman, daughter of a Grocer to rise the very top of British politics and stay there longer than anybody in the 20th century is a truly remarkable achievement. Unlike our current incumbent she didn't require a call from buckingham palace to succeed, she rose via hard work and commitment.  Love her or hate her, she has achieved a lasting impact both in the UK and overseas that very few politicians can match or indeed ever hope to match.

While the memories of most prime Ministers will fade, I suspect that Thatcher will have a legacy that will never be forgotten.
