You can say what you like about Mrs Thatcher, she certainly had some divisive and controversial policies, but one things for certain, she would absolutely wipe the floor with all of today’s MPs.

I thought it was interesting and showed a lot about her, that despite her recent health scares the strokes suffering from dementia etc. still tried to walk solo as much as possible. Very independent.

[poissonnoir]

My, my - what a lot of unhappy, benighted souls there are out there.

May God bless her. She had more balls than any leader alive today.

[markvincentbonachita]

Still waving like she used to do back in 1979.

[Lee-svsu]

Love her or hate her no one can deny her presence of being the Iron Lady even in these frail years after strokes and health issues quite remarkable really

[whachoutb]

" thank you butler, now where`s the prime minister? "

[MissTele]

Many people didn't like her, but Britain was great because of her.

Also, I do love the gentle & careful way David Cameron escorted her out the car, in front of the door & into Number 10. He's both clearly concerned enough to make sure she's OK, but also let's her go solo & get her moment, standing up on her own, waving at the press & looking indomitable as ever.

A great leader who wasn't scared to do.

I am pretty sure she did wanted to say she was good to be back at Downing, it`s just she din`t have the voice to do so or neither would they be able to hear her with her fragile state back then.

Truer words were never said;
"The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people's money."
Margaret Thatcher

[fazekaslaszlo]

whenever I see Cameron he reminds me of Chandler Bing from Friends....

[henryvagincourt]

Arr Maggie, she had a pair, sent me to the Falklands as a teenager, not like the glorious politicians we have now.

[MuhammadHassan-hjmx]

If she could she'd probably kick him out and reclaim that house LOL

[JEdmundHardy]

The best British PM in modern history.  She put the 'Great' back in Britain.

[yoyo-vzkm]

I really admire her. Shes not afraid to do things, unlike the politicians today. Most politicians now are too afraid to make a stand because it might reflect badly on their image.

[ataramprat]

It's so sad to see a person that led such a strong live with such conviction in a declining physical and mental state. I hope the best for Lady Thatcher's remaining years. She served her people well and deserves the very best!

[williamcap]

We need more people like Margaret Thatcher & Ronald Reagan today. That is the problem with world today no strong leaders everyone is in it for money & greed !

[olivermadden]

What a great PM Maggie was. will never be forgotten

[thedangler]

We need someone of her standing today rather than the current weaklings who can't make a decision.
