Great speaker helped end the cold war. Will be good to read her biography someday. She was a great fan of Lincoln, as was her speech writer. Thanks for all the info Bazza.
Falklands was a huge gaff IMO. I think she had her reasons about German Unification. Look at where Germany is today compared to Great Britain.
Hard to live down the "poll tax' thing though, just a tax on the poor really, in a very class stratified country. That kind of thing never goes over well, but what a leader. What she didn't ruin of the working class &coal industry Blair certainly finished. There are similarities to how the working class here has been gutted, in the USA.
