Margaret Thatcher: On two of the great issues, the lady was indeed for turning

Christopher Booker,Telegraph
"She was famed for sticking to her guns, but on Europe and climate change the former prime minister in fact executed U-turns ........Thus, long before it became fashionable, Lady Thatcher was converted to the view of those who, on both scientific and political grounds, have become ever more sceptical of the entire climate change ideology. How odd it is that, even today, so few people realise what a key role she played in helping to promote that scare in the first place. But even fewer realise how she eventually came to make as great a U-turn on this issue as any in her life."
