More from Margaret Thatcher
"I can sometimes be a bit of a tartar, but I have a soft core."
"I do not believe in consensus politics. I believe in conviction politics."
"I always cheer up immensely if anything is said to me that is particularly wounding, because I think, 'There is someone who need not be considered.'"
"We are not asking for a soft life. We are asking for a fair chance."
"We have to get back to basics: to family, to community, to self-reliance."
About Margaret Thatcher (1925-2013)
British Prime Minister (1979-1990) whose free-market reforms and confrontation with trade unions defined the late-20th-century right. Closely associated with Ronald Reagan (her closest international ally). For an intellectual contrast, see Tony Benn, Labour cabinet minister and democratic-socialist figurehead — Benn was the loudest parliamentary opposition to Thatcherism throughout the 1980s. His diaries and Thatcher's autobiography are the two opposing histories of the period — Britain's class politics is structured around which view was right.
