Margaret Thatcher: The Iron Lady 

Margaret Thatcher is the clear definition of an inspirational woman. She grew up with an outspoken father during World War II, it was this that caused her to be inspired to fight for what she believed in. She went to college at Oxford, and then started small trying to break into politics. She was a member of the Conservative Party. It was with courage and hard work that she became Great Britain's first lady Prime Minister. She broke the barriers, of the "mans world" of British Politics. Margaret Thatcher got her nickname for her radical ideas and style of government. When trying to reform problems that were occurring she stuck to her guns and refused to negotiate with the protesters against her ideas. When staying at a hotel, an attempt was made on her life by the plantation of a bomb. She escaped without harm. In other instances she also went against the queen when dealing with the Apartheid issues in South Africa. It caused quite a controversy, and a problem between the Royal Family and Parliament. I consider her a powerful and inspirational woman. Although her political career ended in a way that is not looked upon in a good light, she did a lot for the British people and proved that women could hold their own in Parliament and British politics.
