Agreed; but does this warrant a State Funeral? I think that if there is strong opposition from a significant part of the population she should not have one. I know that my mom would have cut off her hand before putting an X by the name of a tory; but I know she admired Winston Churchill and was all in favor of his having a State Funeral. And Churchill was popular throughout the old Dominions .... in Kingston we have a Churchill St., a Churchill Cr., Winston Churchill School, there is a town in Manitoba called Churchill, famous for its Polar Bears .... etc. I admit that Thatcher had some good qualities; and perhaps tough times require a tough leader; but a State Funeral?
