A great leader for certain and like John Wayne she did not take, (err well (nothing) off nobody… Awesome Lady… Respect is earned…
Margaret Hilda Thatcher, Baroness Thatcher, LG, OM, PC, FRS (née Roberts, 13 October 1925 – 8 April 2013) was the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from 1979 to 1990 and the Leader of the Conservative Party from 1975 to 1990. She was the longest-serving British Prime Minister of the 20th century and is the only woman to have held the office. A Soviet journalist called her the “Iron Lady”, a nickname that became associated with her uncompromising politics and leadership style. As Prime Minister, she implemented policies that have come to be known as Thatcherism.
You see there is a part of the way we look at life that tells us certain things and we know for sure that people do not respect cowards.
Right, we learn this from an early age.
No one respects a coward.
People respect the man or in this case Woman, that can protect and defend themselves and more so for those that can do it for others.
