Thatcher is dead

According to LBC just now, 'Thatcher will receive a ceremonial funeral with military honours'.

So, basically a state funeral then?!
 
I've said before in other Maggie threads, that I think it's bad taste to speak ill of the dead

Thatcher spoke very ill of Mosolodi Mogerani and Montaung executed by hanging in June 1983 describing their political organisation the ANC as terrorists, not to be grieved over.
I can't remember what the actual line was on Bobby Sands after he died but I don't think it was very kind.

It was "crime is crime is crime", wasn't it?

They've been saying that on BBC for ages. There's people on Twitter having a go at others on Twitter for demanding No State Funeral, telling them it isn't a state funeral. A state funeral is not a lot different to a ceremonial one, so they seem to be missing the point :D
 
Anyone who takes pleasure in the death of another human being is a cunt who is utterly devoid of common humanity.

I must admit I thought that I would be a lot happier at this news than I have been, though I also think that what she went through after 1990 - being succeeded by a string of incompetent cretins who proceed to take her "legacy", twist it, implement it in ways that she would have thought absurd, go on to inflict miseries on the British people (that she almost certainly would not have done) whilst using her as an example and being cited as an influence by people such as Michele Bachmann - was a better punishment than a load of postmortem partying.
