She completely controls this interview, and she does it while expounding and defending the essence of her policies rather than using cheap media tricks. Truly inspirational! How did we get from Maggie to the clowns of the last decade plus? And where is a politician like that now, when GB needs it most?

Yep! Indeed she had Pluto in the 8th house in her natal chart. Terribly intuitive and with a strong radar for bullshit!

I can see how she was called the Iron Lady! She was a no nonsense Prime Minister! The UK needs her now more than ever.

Lady Thatcher is sheer class here, calm, erudite and ready with relevant facts and figures on her fingertips (not unheard of in politicians abroad, but well, our place is a tad different). It is also interesting, though not surprising, to see what a different time 1982 was; when the interviewer first introduces the topic of unemployment, he talks about 'men in Glasgow, Liverpool...' It was then, I suppose, much more a man's world than it is today (though the Prime Minister was a woman even in '82). If a journalist ever said such a thing today, we'd have to write the epitaph of his career on Twitter the next day.

Her articulation is staggering.

Regardless of your politics, this woman's demeanor. Her sheer grasp of facts and joining the dots, huge intellect and gravitas is on another planet to politicians today.

Truly intelligent woman. Not all can appreciate this refined lady's train of thought. Will continue to admire Thatcher to the end.

G-D rest her precious soul. She and Churchill are sorely missed in the world stage. I hope we in America learn a thing or two from her conviction.

What's interesting is she constantly talks of competing with Germany. She had vision and ambition, compare that to the PMs that preceeded her who had no game plan, no ambition and no idea of where they wanted to take the country. Boris is one of those - there isn't really a game plan it's just living from day to day. I bet Thatcher is turning in her grave thinking the Conservatives would eventually be led by subsequent jokes.

If you compare house prices in the North West from 1978 until now with inflation, a house now costs 3 times as much, relative to income/inflation, what they did in 1978. It's one of the reasons that the average first time buyer's house in the UK now costs 9x average salary as opposed to between 2-3x average wage in 1978. Interest rates were higher, which bumped up mortgages but it also let savers earn a ton. Nowadays it's simply much harder to save unless you're living with your parents. Case in point, a £12000 house in 1978 would now be worth between £200K and £250K. In contrast, £12,000 then is now worth about £70,000 now. If you were someone with a good job in the 80's you raked it in compared to now.

She says as much with her eyes as she does with her voice. As for her tone..... whether you agreed with her not, you know what she believes in. Politicians seem to be less forceful with their opinions and values these days..... incase its unpopular.... even if it would be the "right thing" to do.

She knew the recipe, she knew what resources are needed for the desired outcome and she also knew that only patience and discipline will get her there.

Maggie had a grasp of reality & knew her brief. That is more than now in 2020.

History has proven that she was right wanting to embrace new technologies of the future like Japan were doing, nearly 40 years later we living amidst a technological revolution delivering unparalleled consumer choice the hallmark of classical capitalism.

It's not until one looks back until you have a realisation that there have always been problems but Maggie and those that supported her had the guts to make the hard decisions. All we get now is a circus of lies, arguments & self interest also why do any so called solutions consist of just (printing more) & throwing money at problems, (NHS is a prime example).
