n 2005, the former PM was advised by doctors that she should not make public speeches in the wake of some minor strokes.
This makes me laugh. She is gaga. Thats why no speeches.

Her son Mark (In 1998 South African authorities investigated his firm for running loan shark operations. A company owned by Thatcher offered unofficial small loans to hundreds of police officers, military personnel and civil servants. When they defaulted on the loans they were pursued by debt collectors and charged 20% interest rates, according to the Star of Johannesburg.[7]
Other widely reported Thatcher embarrassments include allegations of U.S. tax evasion (a criminal case was eventually dropped) and a racketeering case in Texas which was settled out of court. According to The Daily Telegraph of 26 August 2004, "In 1998, he was at the centre of a scandal after he lent huge sums of money at exorbitant interest rates to more than 900 local police officers and civil servants in Cape Town. He admitted lending the cash but insisted that he had done nothing wrong. He is also thought to have profited from contracts to supply aviation fuel in various African countries."
On 24 November 2004, the Cape Town High Court upheld a subpoena from the South African Justice Ministry that required him to answer under oath questions from Equatorial Guinean authorities regarding the alleged coup attempt. He was due to face questioning on 25 November 2004, regarding offences under the South African Foreign Military Assistance Act; however, these proceedings were later postponed until 8 April 2005. Ultimately, following a process of plea bargaining, Thatcher pleaded guilty to negligence in investing in an aircraft "without taking proper investigations into what it would be used for". Thatcher admitted in court that he had paid the money, but said he was under the impression it was going to be invested in an air ambulance service to help the impoverished of Africa. This explanation was not believed by the judge and he was fined three million rand (approximately $500,000) and received a four-year suspended jail sentence.) who is loved as much by the British public as his mother,said she was "in good spirits" and her admission was "entirely precautionary".

Apparently theres a party planned in trafalgar square, 6pm, first Sat after she dies.
It might sound mean but if I can be there I will. She was a vile person who knowingly caused untold misery to others out of greed and spite. I fear this country may never recover from the harm she did.
Damn, and I try to stay out of the politics too.

The architect of today’s broken Britain, sold everything we owned for pennies and gave the key to Bank of England to "spivs and gamblers".
History will look back on the 80’s as a dark time in politics
PS energy security will be the cause of future wars and we have a 1000 years of coal buried under our feet...
PPS lets not forget the mess we are in right now

I personally hold her in the same high esteem that I hold her political and personal friend Augusto Pinochet. And by high, I mean lower than whale s**t.

not nice to wish death but armando innuci [spell] said the only good thing about getting older was every day she was closer to death.

I agree on both counts. She was vile person who knowingly caused untold misery ....etc, etc. And, celebrating her death has absolutely nothing to do with politics.
So I for one, won't be celebrating the death of a senile old woman. My issue was with her premiership - not the person. She stopped being an issue for me a very long time ago.
I find the whole 'let's all go out and celebrate when she dies' bollox, pathetic, childish, and a sign of political immaturity.

If you former revolutionaries, red wedgers and socialist youths haven't grown up enough, then you have more personal problems than are healthy. Regardless of your political views now or then, claiming to celebrate any death is just beneath contempt.

It's not nice to wish for the death of another human.
Really? Think there's anyone, other than the terminally deranged, who'll mourn the death of Mugabe?
As for Thatcher, she may well be an irrelevance now, but the damage she did to the North-East is something I lived through and can never forgive. Childish and immature as it may be, I'll be happy when I hear that she's gone.

Oddly I would suspect the types of people who are emotionally stunted and can or did mock the dying would be Augusto Pinochet, Thatcher or her son.

Evil woman, that period was totally devoid of any human kindness and ruined the lives and futures of so many
Think the best thing that could be done is totally ignore her passing, doesn't deserve anything from this country or its people

Nothing compared to the one that's going to kick off when she gets where she's going.

She'll be going out happy after today. I hope a few of you economic experts get a nice boot in the financial balls before she goes.

Mourning a death is very different from wishing a death.And for all her bad points, she was never a mass-murderer like Mugabe, Pinochet or Hitler - let's get her evil deeds in some kind of perspective shall we?

throw the body on the slag heap.
I hate all politicians but especially ones that effectively destroyed whole communities without a shadow of remorse.

But Gordon Brown selling off 400 tons of gold at a quarter its current price was just fine.
And TB getting us sucked into a war in Iraq more or less on a whim was just one of those things.
And we'd all be perfectly happy if the country was run by the unions as it was back in the '70s. Coal strikes bringing down Ted Heath's government. Assembly workers at Cowley on near-permanent strike producing unusable cars. The English sickness derided across Europe.

Luked - Gordon Brown and the gold was simply not on the same scale as deliberately putting millions of people out of work to create a pool of unemployed to drive down the cost of labour.
If you think the country was run by the unions in the 70s you are sadly mistaken
