    This is a difficult one and I don't think I can vote!

    At the time she was in power, I was just a kid, but I'd definitely say that I didn't like her! However, now that I am an adult, looking back on her policies, I think that many of them were the right thing to do.

    I wouldn't say that I "don't care" because she was an important historical leader.

    But what isn't in question is her personal achievement, at a time when politics was dominated by men.

    More Glenda...with some rather funny friends.

    No wonder she's a good performer in the house...having been an Oscar winner.

    Yes, that's why I tried to balance things out a little.

    After all, there are sooo many attractive and gifted ladies in the other parties.

    I voted yes, I didn't agree with everything she said, having said that, you always knew that what she said she meant and never changed her mind so you knew where you stood wether you liked it or not. Very strong and brave woman!

    A definite no from me
    She was a reversal of a modern day robin hood she robbed the poor to give to the rich

    She sold off all the badly run British businesses that were losing money and noncompetitive.
    They had to be subsidized by tax payers as they were run by fat lazy jobs worths who thought they had a cushy little number for life and protected by the unions.
    Wrong!!
    Sink or swim like the rest of us.
    I dont agree with everything she did..The poll tax was a huge mistake that she paid for dearly.

    See, you're warming to her Stewart.

    Oh, maybe 'warming' is the wrong word today.

    if ALL these British companies were so badly run, why did businesses and people risk their money buying shares then?

    or is it a case of selling £10 notes for a £5

    said, I remain firmly committed to the statement I made on first learning of her demise, i.e. ... she was - and shall continue to be, renowned - for having been one of the STRONGEST and most influential figures in British politics.

    There is always risk involved when buying a companies shares..
    As I said,sink or swim with the rest of us.
    Fortunately newly privatized companies like B.T went from strength to strength after they were privatized. Given newCommercial freedoms, companies like BT were able to operate and expand globally.
    Wish now I had got some myself back then!!
