Margaret Thatcher in her own words... (and what words they are)
April 08, 2013  18:09
"I love argument. I love debate. I don't expect anyone just to sit there and agree with me - that's not their job." 1980

"I am not a consensus politician. I'm a conviction politician." 1979

"I don't mind how much my ministers talk, as long as they do what I say."1980

"To those waiting with bated breath for that favourite media catchphrase, the U-turn, I have only one thing to say. You turn if you want to. The lady's not for turning." 10 October 1980, Conservative party conference
