"I mourn the loss of thousands of precious lives, but I will not rejoice in the death of one, not even an enemy. Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that." - Martin Luther King Jr..
One wonders what Martin Luther King would have made of her support for apartheid. She considered Neilson Mandela to be a terrorist.
Whilst I'm not about to celebrate her death, I'm not going to pretend that she was anything else but a very nasty piece of work. Her death frankly is irrelevant, the damage she did has been done, the crimes she committed now long in the past and for which she can no longer be held to account. We live today with her legacy and I ain't gonna shed no tears for her.
And of course once again this country is being governed by a Tory government, albeit one with Lib Dem partners, that we did not vote for.
