Rejected petition no state money for thatcher's funeral

More details

As Margaret Thatcher was very pro-private sector, we the undersigned believe no public funding should be used to pay for her funeral. All costs involved in the ceremony including "military honours" should be paid for by private funding. Someone who did not believe in society should not receive any benefits from members of that society.
