Margaret Thatcher's Birth Anniversary

Margaret Thatcher, born on 13 October 1925, in Grantham, Lincolnshire, England, was a British Conservative Party politician and prime minister (1979–90), Europe’s first woman prime minister. The only British prime minister in the 20th century to win three consecutive terms and, at the time of her resignation, Britain’s longest continuously serving prime minister since 1827, she accelerated the evolution of the British economy from statism to liberalism and became, by personality as much as achievement, the most renowned British political leader since \Winston Churchill. She was a role model for a later prime minister, Liz Truss.
