That says a lot.

[Kenadian_2006]

Can't say sympathy oozes from me.

[Lamuella]

I try not to wish ill to anyone, so I hope she feels better soon. She was the worst prime minister of the twentieth century by a huge margin, but that doesn't mean I wish her physical harm.

[Ned the Great]

Get better soon Thatcher. You were a good PM, even though I disagree with you're whole economic policy.

[Cheyenne]

She IS the whole economic policy? Impressive.

On another note, I hope she doesn't suffer to much, but it would be pretty hypocritical for me as a Christian to hope she 'gets well soon'.

She was a decent Prime Minister, she was too Neoconservative for me, but she definitely had her upsides.

Excuse me?

[Cheyenne]

You're excused.

[Smallfrog]

It looks like she is recovering.

And there have been worse Prime ministers. For 2/3 of her terms, Thatcher did well. She also gave people a sense of pride when we took back our islands.

[MadScotsman]

Maggie knew what she wanted, from herself, her staff and her Nation. And by god she got it. Although my family lost allot of friends under her leadership, she looked after my Auld Man, and the rest of the army with pay rises left, right and centre. Shame she used Scotland as a dumping ground for all problems of the English people...

You what

She did a job and she was damn good at it. Hope she gets well soon.

Britain transformed from a cruddy worldwide economy under Thatcher, to a might strong one when Labout took over in 1997. She didn't fanny about capitulating to the Unions demanding 25% pay rises. She didn't fanny about when the Argies invaded the Falklands. She didn't fanny about freeing murderers from Ulster prisons. But thats a political debate, not a debate on a person who is ill.

At the end of the day, as already pointed out. She is no spring chicken. Any illness at that age is going to be more consuming than if she was a 20 something. She's been ill a lot recently. Can't see her making 90 tbh.

[Jormungand]

So close, yet so far.

It won't be long, and then I'll have my chance to dance near her grave to 'I Fought the Law'.

Well Maggie - Loves or Hated her - Personally I hated her policies but liked the way she carried out governance.

Well, as I believe in heaven, and I believe her to be a Christian, wouldn't I rather that she went to heaven than that she stayed alive?

[Katsumi]

I'm wishing for her to get well soon. From both her illness and from being a Tory.

[Eagare the Alenthin]

What? No, you don't hope people die so that they go to heaven.

Being a Tory is not a sin. However, being Dave the Chameleon is.
