• Ahora tenemos varias mujeres muy poderosas en el mundo: la señora [Angela] Merkel, a quien los alemanes llaman Mutti. ¿Cómo llamábamos a la señora [Margaret] Thatcher? Cuando era ministra de Educación, puso fin a la leche escolar gratuita para los niños. Puede sonar pintoresco, pero después de la guerra éramos una nación tan desnutrida que parte de la fundación del Estado del bienestar fueron iniciativas de salud pública. Todos los escolares recibían leche. La Sra. Thatcher lo impidió. La llamaban "Maggie Thatcher, ladrona de leche".

• The state owned monopolies are among the greatest millstones round the neck of the economy. Liberals must stress at all times the virtues of the market, not only for efficiency but to enable the widest possible choice.

• I think Mrs Thatcher did more damage to democracy, equality, internationalism, civil liberties, freedom in this country than any other Prime Minister this century.

People in the street will say, thank God she's gone

• ¿Puede sugerir alguna calumnia adecuada para difundir en el extranjero sobre la Sra. Thatcher?

• She is a reflection of comfortable middle-class values that do not take seriously the continuing unemployment. What I particularly regret is that she does not take seriously the intellectual decline. Having given up the Empire and the mass production of industrial goods, Britain's future lay in its scientific and artistic pre-eminence. Mrs Thatcher will be long remembered for the damage she has done.

• In London - and forget those extra public pressures on politicians - the lovely old Sloane world of manor houses simply hasn't cut it since Big Bang in 1986, the point at which Mrs. Thatcher really started to achieve her ambition to make this country more like America - its ambition, economy, it's very tangible measures of success.

• Gran parte de Estados Unidos necesita ahora un equivalente del programa de privatización de la señora Thatcher en la Gran Bretaña de los ochenta, o de la liberalización económica de la Europa del Este postsoviética a principios de los noventa. Es difícil cerrar organismos públicos, pero debería ser posible venderlos. Y un beneficio secundario de externalizar la Oficina de Agencias Gubernamentales y la Agencia de Oficinas Gubernamentales es que también se privatizarían los sindicatos del sector público, que son el mayor y más directo asalto a la libertad, la integridad cívica y la solvencia fiscal.
