thejordanator:

“Thatcher was a prime minister who denounced Nelson Mandela as a terrorist, defended the Chilean fascist dictator Augusto Pinochet, ratcheted up the cold war, and unleashed militarised police on trade unionists and black communities alike. She was Britain’s first woman prime minister, but her policies hit women hardest, like Cameron’s today.”

Please remember the above statement if you go to see The Iron Lady and start to hail her as a feminist icon (she hated feminists).
