  • Margaret Thatcher: A view from Scotland of her leadership

    Thirty years ago Margaret Thatcher became Britain's first woman Prime Minister. Her premiership was the most controversial of the post-war period - not least here in Scotland.

    Political editor Bernard Ponsonby chaired a panel discussion on Mrs Thatcher's legacy with an A-list of speakers. The event at the Signet Library in Edinburgh on Monday night attracted hundreds.

    Featured were the former Scottish Secretary Sir Malcolm Rifkind MP, former Scottish Conservative leader David McLetchie MSP, former Labour minister Brian Wilson and former SNP deputy leader Jim Sillars.
