WHO...... WELL MARGARET THATCHER.....THAT IS WHO.
SHE DIED TODAY APRIL 8TH AT AGE 87.
NEWS CASTS PUT HER AND RONALD REAGAN AS TWO FROM THE SAME POD.
THEY LIVED AND REIGNED IN THE 1980s IN THEIR RESPECTIVE COUNTRIES....MARGARET IN BRITAIN, RONALD IN THE USA.
THEY SHARE MUCH OF THE SAME CONSERVATIVE VIEWS.
THEY WERE TOUGH ON UNIONS WHEN TOUGHNESS WAS NEEDED.
THEY BOTH ESCAPED NEAR ASSASINATIONS.....MARGARET IN A BOMBING AND RONALD IN A GUN ATTACK.
MARGARET WAS TOUGH WHEN ARGINTINA INVADED THE FALKLAND ISELAND THAT BELONGED TO BRITAIN, SENDING TROOPS TO WIN BACK THE FALKLANDS, WITH BEHIND THE SCENES HELP FROM THE USA.
MANY WORLD LEADERS FOUND OUT IN NO UNCERTAIN TERMS HOW UP-FRONT AND OUTSPOKEN MARGARET COULD BE, BUT THEY SAY SHE WAS KIND, THOUGHFUL, AND NEVER HELD A GRUDGE, BEHIND THE SCENES.
MARGARET WAS AGAINST CLOSER TIES WITH EUROPE, AND THAT PUT HER OUT OF STEP WITH HER OTHER MPs OF HER PARTY, AND FINALLY BROUGHT HER DOWN AS LEADER AND PRIME MINISTER OF BRIATIN.
HER ECONOMIC POLICIES WERE MORE IN LINE WITH THE USA.....MORE FREEDOM. IT DIVIDED BRITAIN AND TODAY BOTH SIDES ARGUE THEIR POINT OF GOOD OR BAD, WHICHEVERF SIDE YOUR ON.
MARGARET WAS A GREAT LEADER OF FREEDOM AS WAS RONALD R.
RUSSIAN PAPERS ARE PRAISING HER AS A WOMAN AND ALSO ONE OF THE THREE [GORBY FROM RUSSIA, RONY FROM THE USA] AS BRINGING DOWN THE BERLIN WALL AND FREEDOM FROM THE IRON FIST OF RUSSIA. PUTIN FROM RUSSIA HAS NOTHING BUT PRAISE AND ADMARATION FOR MARGARET T.
SHE WILL HAVE TO GO DOWN IN HISTORY INDEED AS THE SO-CALLED IRON-LADY [PINNED ON HER FROM RUSSIA ACTUALLY], AND MUST BE THE GREATEST BRITISH WOMAN LEADER IN CERTAIN WAYS, SINCE THE GREAT BRITISH LADY BOUDICCA.
BOUDICCA YOU SAY, WHO ON EARTH WAS SHE?
THE BRITISH HAVE MADE A FILM ABOUT HER. THEY ALSO HAVE IN LONDON A STATUTE OF BOUDICCA IN HER CHARIOT CHARGING THE ENEMY.
THE MOVIE IS CALLED "WARRIOR QUEEN" - "EPIC-SCALE MASTERPIECE THEATRE" SAYS THE LOS ANGELES TIMES.
ON THE BACK OF THE DVD CASE WE READ:
"It is the first century A.D. and the Romans have invaded ancient Britain, but the Iceni, a Celtic tribe, are unwilling to live as a subject race in their own land. For a while, they are allowed to continue their lives as usual, without Rome's interference, but when Emperor Claudius dies, the Romans and the new Emperor Nero no longer tolerate the Iceni way of life and endeavor to crush the upstart Queen Boudicca and her tribe. However, they have underestimated the Celtic spirit and, seeking revenge, Boudicca leads her people against the mighty Romans with devastating effect."
IT IS QUITE THE MOVIE AND A GREAT PART OF ANCIENT BRITISH HISTORY, BOUDICCA WAS THE MARGARET THATCHER OF HER DAY....A WARRIOR OF FREEDOM!
