@Pennyred: There's a lot more to say about Margaret Thatcher, but not on Twitter, and not today.

@holysmoke: Any friend of mine celebrating Lady Thatcher's death: you're an ex-friend.

@Number10Gov: "It was with great sadness that l learned of Lady Thatcher’s death. We've lost a great leader, a great Prime Minister and a great Briton"

@GeriHalliwell: Thinking of our 1st Lady of girl power ,Margaret Thatcher , a green grocer's daughter who taught me any thing is possible...x

@Senjohnmccain: RIP Margaret Thatcher, one of the great leaders of the 20th century

@xcarlywhitex: I'm clearly just not as educated as everyone else but who is Margaret thatcher?

@DavidLammy: RIP Margaret Thatcher. Whatever you think of her she will remain a political giant. End of an era.

@davidschneider: Ok, Twitter. It's that moment. Switch Decency settings to maximum and all will be fine

@fieldproducer: Time to find out how accurate this is - "What Twitter will look like on the day that Thatcher dies” http://bit.ly/ZuLrYp

@GaryLineker: Very few divide opinion like Baroness Thatcher. Loved and loathed in equal measure, but remembered by all.
