April 17, 2013
The funeral ceremony of former UK PM Baroness Margaret Thatcher due to begin shortly. The BBC writes that before heading into St Paul's to take his seat, and read a lesson during the service, Prime Minister David Cameron says he "learned a huge amount from watching" Baroness Thatcher at work.


He says he saw first hand "the kindness she showed to people" when he began work for the Conservative Party as a junior researcher in 1998. Today, he feels "a great pride in all that she achieved, tinged with sadness".
