Mildly amused at the hordes of greying Brits spewing rabid schadenfreude all over the internet.
Love her or hate her she was a formidable woman and PM and I doubt anyone else could have done a better job in those times, certainly none of the muppets we've had since. The country was in a p*ss-poor state domestically and globally and declining fast, and whether you agree with them or not she made a lot of hard decisions that needed making. I understand why great swathes of the population despise her (leaving aside it being the trendy thing to do) but she also had many moments as a great PM.
We can't complain too hard; we voted her in three times, twice by sizeable majorities.
Wonder if my letter from her is worth something now?
She was never voted in by a majority of eligible voters. The tory rats did get a large commons majority to be sure but as for 51% or more of the electorate voting for her, never happened.
