I loved this idiot's misuse of the English (!) language.
Was she once before not deceased? "Is deceased" is correct.
Or more direct, "has died" or "is dead". Or passed AWAY. Never 'has passed.'

And I learned she and Saint Ronnie were even more alike than I knew!
Thatcher also emptied the mentally ill into the streets.
Despicable souls both, the Lady and the Saint.

she has never made it a secret of her loathing of Thatcher and good on her to speak up to provide balance while everyone seems to think the sun rose and set around that woman.
