Margaret Thatcher – a life in photos

MARGARET Thatcher has died. Is it a case of “ding-dong the witch is dead”, as many have declared? Or did you admire Britain’s first female Prime Minister? As she said in 1965: “In politics, if you want something said, ask a man. If you want something done, ask a woman.” Get a load of the feckless, philandering, self-serving, PR-driven, greedy men who have followed in her footsteps.
