Yes I do. And I think that my country, America, should have ordered its flags lowered to half-mast and closed all federal offices at the news of her death.

No. She was an excellent leader - the greatest peacetime prime minister - but she did not want a state funeral, so it was right that her wishes were respected. She was certainly deserving of a state funeral, though.

By my recollections SHE did have one ......
And NO i dont think she deserved one at the expense of the English tax payers . personally
i think the ordinary english person endures more than enough thru poll tax .water rates .
and enforced taxes without having to pay for the burial of M. Thatcher .
The estimated cost came to 3 & 1/2 million pounds at not the original 10 million as first thought .......

Just so long as she is out of office I don't really mind about the cost!
