Commenting on sad news that Baroness Thatcher has today died of a stroke, Stephen Metcalfe, Conservative Member of Parliament for South Basildon and East Thurrock said: “Margaret Thatcher changed not only the face of politics but the face of a nation. Through her dedication, commitment, energy and determination Mrs Thatcher secured a successful future for this country that many at the time thought unthinkable. Margaret Thatcher’s enduring legacy will be to leave a nation in a better state than she found it.”
“My condolences and deepest sympathies go to her family and close friends.”
