"Now I realise that I do admire a woman, whether she is right or wrong, regardless of her opinions," said the singer. "She had the courage to stand by her convictions. Not like me. I look at my behaviour, which exposed how weak I was under fire, not like Margaret Thatcher. Rest in peace." There were a couple threads earlier about the raging left making her "untweat" her initial statement. Looks like she realized at least that was wrong.

She explained it well.

It takes a big man (or woman), to publicly admit that they fouled up. Good for her.
She was undoubtedly thrown for a loop by the unexpected disgusting responses, and she blinked. It could happen to anyone, but good for her for speaking up afterward.

“she had been afraid of upsetting people and had even been led to question her view of Thatcher.”
No offense to anyone chicks reading this, but this is why more women than men are Liberals — Women are generally more concerned about not offending than they are the telling the truth; and women (more the men) have a desire to be liked and accepted do they will go with the group rather than standing behind their belief.

Girl power meets the political correct. I guess we know who won.
However, when her tribute met with a hostile response online, the singer removed it and apologised for any offence it had caused. Three days later, she clarified her thoughts on the matter.
What a coward she is.
