After watching "The Iron Lady" in my opinion Margret Thatcher was a good leader. I liked her willingness to stand up for whats right and not to give in to enemies demands. When the Soviets tried to get her to appease them and everyone was telling her to do it because it was risking not to but she didn't because she didn't believe that was the right decision.
Her decisions seemed to be based on what she believed to be the right thing to do even if it wasn't the decision that the public wanted. This is my guess to why some people absolutely despise her while others praise her; very few people could have a weak opinion on her choices and that resulted in a group of people would agreed with everything she did and others that were the exact opposite.
Many political leaders today are so worried on being re-elected that they are scared to take risks and follow their heart. We need more leaders like Thatcher, even though she didn't make all perfect decisions she made the ones she believed in.
