    Re: a wonderful woman...state treasure

    There has been some controversy over the movie "The Iron Lady", with critics saying it was insensitive to make this whilst she was still alive and that it shouldn't have been made until after she died.
    I fully agree, I also think it should have been made over 20 years ago!

    As you aren't resident in the UK I don't think you are eligible to sign the petition.

    Re: pathetic

    No it's not. Love her or loathe her, it's absolutely unjustifiable spending that amount of money at the current time. Besides, as far as I'm aware it's not tradition to give ex-PMs a state funeral and the only person to have had one in the last century was Churchill for obvious reasons. Not sure what she's done to warrant one even if you look at things objectively.
