John Baron MP saddened by the death of Baroness Thatcher

MP pays tribute to the former Prime Minister

Reacting to the news that Baroness Thatcher has died, John said,

“I am very sad to hear of Baroness Thatcher’s death – my thoughts and feelings are with her family at this difficult moment.”

“Without a doubt, she was our greatest post-war Prime Minister, who restored our competiveness at home and who fought tirelessly for freedom abroad, both against the Soviet Union and on the Falklands. Her contribution was immense, and saved this country from economic oblivion.”

“Many will argue over her legacy, but none of her major reforms have been overturned by successive Governments – whether Conservative, Labour or Coalition. A true conviction politician, she will be long remembered.”
