Rejected petition No official funeral for Margaret Thatcher

More details

It is noted that Margaret Thatcher will not receive a "state funeral".

Instead her funeral will be a "ceremonial funeral" with military honours at St. Paul's Cathedral, similar to the funerals of The Queen Mother or Princess Diana.

The government should not give Mrs. Thatcher this last honour.

Her funeral should be a private affair organised by and for her immediate family.
