Just came back from two weeks business there and the UK is still riding the benefits of what Thatcher wrought. Tony Blair and Gordon Brown are about to unravel a bit more of the legacy with higher taxes to pay for the bankrupt NHS.

I would have to say that in retrospect Thatcher's impact in turning around Britain was greater than the impact the sainted President Reagan had on our own country. I think this was due to the fact that Britain was in a worse pickle than we were but also her reforms were far more far-reaching.
