Article now up:

“Baroness Thatcher has been taken to hospital for precautionary tests, the BBC understands.
The former prime minister was driven from her home to St Thomas’s Hospital on London’s South Bank. No further details are currently available.

In 2005, Lady Thatcher, 82, suffered a series of strokes and was at one stage advised by doctors to refrain from making public speeches.

Lady Thatcher was UK prime minister for 11 years before being ousted in 1990.”

Hope it is just "precautionary".

Last year, seeing her looking so frail, I wrote to her - telling her how much I admired her and thanking her for her great service to our country. So often we leave it too late to say these things to folks we admire.

God bless you, Mrs T!

Will we ever forget her dignity and obvious sorrow at President Reagan’s funeral?

Praying they find nothing, and she is well to live many more days! The Great Lady still has a lot to teach.

Great lady but oh so wrong on Kosovo. Like other respectable conservative minds, she had a blind spot on that issue. The co founder of her Centre for Policy Studies, Sir Alfred Sherman, finally saw the light and served on the board of Save Kosovo

If what I just wrote made you sad or angry,
it was probably just a joke.
