JK2006	Exactly; that's one of the things I loved about Maggie. She was upfront, honest and she genuinely did what she thought was right; not what would make her popular. She also did more for women than almost anyone else. On the other side, she was wrong about many things and lost her marbles towards the end. Having met her, she was also hugely charismatic and had a terrific sense of humour delivered deadpan. "What a delightful waistcoat," she said to me, "where did you get it?". "Harrods" I replied. "Was it on sale?". I burst out laughing and she allowed me a sly glimpse of a smile.
hedda	I saw her as one wedded to the dodgy economics of Hayek and Friedman who have been shown to be wrong. But I view Blair as being far worse. Maggie was up front about everything.
Flo Grimond	Yes, I'm sure the miners say much the same.

Either way it will always be a dodgy subject to the Christian Church. Though the Bible goes with "Ye should not judge". Is hyposcrisy a genuine rule, through life? It would seen so.
