We learn of the death of Baroness Margaret Thatcher, far and away the best prime minister Britain has had in the post World War II period. We write to celebrate her life and accomplishments, from a trans- Atlantic perspective.
What she did for Britain was turn it away from socialism, no small thing. She also tossed the Argentinians out of the Falklands. No other post-war PM accomplished so much or served so long. Britain would be fortunate to have another like her.
Come to think of it, the U.S. would too.
