Margaret Thatcher dies at 87

Former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher has died of a stroke [1] at the age of 87.

Britain, certainly, will not see her like again…

Update from Gov. Bob McDonnell:

“In my fourth year in the legislature in 1995, Baroness Thatcher addressed the Virginia General Assembly in Richmond, saying ‘those unwilling to live the strenuous life of liberty; those who do not value freedom for its own sake, rather than its comforts, are unlikely to hold on to it… when I consider all that this place has given to democracy, I am moved to say that in spirit, I am a Virginian.’ Virginia stands with the people of Britain in mourning the passing of this pioneering leader and in reflecting on her life of service.”
