You
could say many things about the late, great Margaret Thatcher, and people
certainly do, proclaiming her alternately heroine and villain, tough and cruel,
powerful and power-hungry. Upon the news of her passing last night of the last
in a long line of strokes, Twitter lit up with proclamations of “ding, dong the
witch is dead,” as well as the outpouring of millions who respected the
so-called Iron Lady. Childish tweets aside, the world has lost one of its great
female leaders, who – regardless of whether or not you agree with her politics
– served as an example to women everywhere of the greatness they could achieve
and the place in history that could be theirs.
