Statue of Baroness Thatcher

That this House commemorates the thirtieth anniversary of the departure from office of Margaret Thatcher as Prime Minister of the UK on 28 November 1990; recognises that Mrs Thatcher was one of the longest serving British Prime Ministers in history, as well as being the first female Prime Minister of the UK; notes with sadness the absence of a statue commemorating her in Parliament Square; and calls on the Government to make provisions in conjunction with the relevant authorities and with the agreement of the Thatcher family, for the erection of a statue of Baroness Thatcher, to be located on the vacant corner of Parliament Square, on the other side to that of Sir Winston Churchill, to be in place in time for the one hundredth anniversary of Margaret Thatcher’s birthday in 2025.
