Mrs Thatcher, Ex Prime Minister

Maggie Thatcher, Iron Maiden,
Tory PM, Kinnock hater,*
Left the country problem laden,
Voted in, she turned dictator.

I thought she was wonderful, had ideals we don't see any more. I just read a book about her and was amazed at the story. All the best in the contest.

I don't believe that I have seen this form before..Enjoyed the history lesson..Mrs. Thatcher did seem like a very strong woman from what I saw of her on TV..Thanks for the kind review of my work..I thought that form would look like a whirlpool..Sara

Meryl Streep will portray Mrs. Thatcher in an upcoming movie. Good example of a chastushka poem.
