Happy Birthday Maggie!!

Today is the 84th Birthday of the former Prime Minister, Lady Thatcher.

I mention this because yesterday was the 25th anniversary of the bombing of the Grand Hotel in Brighton during the Conservative Party Conference.

No-one who was present at that Conference or watching on television will forget the terrible events of that night.

The fact that the Prime Minister insisted that the conference continue as normal and was there on time the following morning remains a testament to the courage of this remarkable lady.
