Political figures on Thatcher’s death

A few statements that caught my eye, think what you will;

The ANC statement is, I think, fascinatingly magnanimous.

Gerry Adams comments on Thatcher’s death in a very clear way.

Ed Miliband sends his “deep condolences” and praises her “dignity and courage”.

Nick Clegg, full of praise.

The NUM’s obituary finishes with the words “good riddance”.

Argentinian war veterans are less than impressed.

Peter Tatchell on a heartless legacy.

Kate Hudson of CND on the cold war legacy.

I rather liked Neil Kinnock’s tone.

 


To add a few interesting piece (in no way an attempt to be comprehensive);

The Evening Standard tries to rally punk to Thatcher’s case.

Verso books has a nice little thought piece.
