why change habit of lifetime gwynne, he dont normally answer questions hes asked, he skirts round them, lol

Blair was asked ages ago about a state funeral for Thatcher and he said no. If he's asked a question he should surely answer it, He didn't just get up one morning and announce it out of the blue. State funerals are for heroes. Thatcher was no hero. Dreadful woman Gwynne

funny how he stopped off at america to fill in bush what the hells it gott o do with him, it was a threat on british airports, not america, then america were on the news bleeting about how good they aer, it was british thats BRITISH inteligence who sorted it, opps sorry fallin off soap box lol

WHAT A GOOD POINT JULIE i wouldnt of flown with my family knowing that this was all just about to happen bacardi xx

No surprise there then.....

i think thats awful calous of tony blair discussing a ladys funeral before shes died, what a terible man aint it funny how he happened to be flying to america the day before the airport trouble kicked off surely inteliggance should have known!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! well they did and more than theyve let on

i seen mrs t alive and well,shopping in our local tesco bacardi xx

Totally agree Bacardi,she will always have my admiration, my family were self employed as I grew up and she did good by us, Plus she knew when a war was WORTH fighting, Cazxxxxxxxx

I shall not shed a tear over her, I think Tony Blair is a whimp, but he has done more for the working class then she ever it...Just my opinion...........Hayley

she was a very strong powefull lady i wont be voting tony blair back in bacardi xx

MT did things wrong but she was stronger than the bunch of two faced,sycophantic, cheating to##ers we have now, Just my opinion now I've calmed down!!! cazxxxxxxxx

i wonder if any 1 will take any notice if she does die maybe maybe not bacardi x

robin, whats do with tony bs daughter?

What are the problems with Tony Blairs daughter then?? I think MT should have a decent funeral. After all Tony Blair can talk..... Just my opinion.

how do you know that then Robin? I;d heard she wasm't in the best of health - but she is in her 80s.

It is not public knowledge, But it is rumoured in Whitehall that Mrs T is not too well, and, as with the problems with Tony Blair's daughter, the media have been asked not to mention it.

Sorry Fred but as a tax payer ( I am sure most of us are ), I would be outraged if she got one....Hayley

I thought that she had died too,when I read it,we must have been reading the same thing. But then on second thoughts realised that she hadnt,or else it would have been on the news 28 hours a day.

Very,very well said Fred, She may have done some things wrong but she had guts!!! Cazxxxxxxxxxxxx

Reigning monarchs have state funerals not ex prime ministers. The only reason Churchill had one was to honour his life as a great war leader. I don't see any reason why Margaret Thatcher should have a state funeral. She may be allowed a 'ceremonial' funeral though which isn't much different anyway. Debby
