Well there you go. Ex Prime Minister dies at 87.
Wonder what the press reaction will be in the coming days.

[quote]"She was a lady with a great personality …. She was very important in the history of Great Britain," former Canadian prime minister Jean Chrétien told CBC News by phone. Chrétien said he had the opportunity to work with Thatcher while he was Canada's minister of justice, and met her several times while he was prime minister. Although she had very strong political views, he said, she could be a very pleasant person and quite charming in private."[/quote] Well, that's uncharacteristically diplomatic.
