The Nerve of Margaret Thatcher

Hers was what amounted to the open invitation to Argentina to invade the Falkland Islands, followed by the (starved) Royal Navy’s having to behave as if the hopelessly out-of-her-depth Prime Minister did not exist, a sort of coup without which those Islands would be Argentine to this day. In that war’s dying days, she reasserted herself, so that her cack-handed piracy even managed to give the nasty Argentine regime a legitimate grievance. Away with her!
