The Guardian has a great article on misapplied death etiquette, http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2013/apr/08/margaret-thatcher-death-etiquette , which I'm posting to the Miss Prunellas of both sexes who hand wring over the grave dancing going on here.

Thatcher was a horrible person who did a lot of damage to the UK, especially in the north, in Wales, Scotland and Ulster. She created a tremendous amount of human misery and along with Reagan, peddled the conservative poison effectively worldwide.

If you're not glad she's finally dead, you simply have not paid any attention to who she was.
