Privatise the Thatcher state funeral

In keeping with the great lady's legacy, Margaret Thatcher's state funeral should be funded and managed by the private sector to offer the best value and choice for end users and other stakeholders. The undersigned believe that the legacy of the former PM deserves nothing less and that offering this unique opportunity is an ideal way to cut government expense and further prove the merits of liberalised economics Baroness Thatcher spearheaded.

Ooooh fucking signed. Great reasoning. I hope her coffin's emblazened with BT and British Gas logos. It's such a shame she's doolally and can't look back on her life with pride.

If there is any justice she will suffer the same misfortune as Vaclav Havel (unjust in his case) of dying on the same day as another major global event and the world will simply shrug while Britain's cities party.

Actually, I'm slightly disappointed that she's apparently gone quite gaga. I'd like to have seen her wheeled out on Newsnight et al as the system she so zealously endorsed and the ideals she espoused have been corrupted and have failed so catastrophically. As a person seemingly incapable of admitting any failings, it would have been interesting at the very least.

I'm sure that if she hadn't gone senile she'd still refuse to admit any failings in her ideology though. I suspect she'd probably be proud of Cameron and Osborne.

Indeed, for they are her spawn.

Why stop there. Can't we stop the civil list and get the Royal family some private sponsership to keep it propped up. Perhaps Domino's Dial a Pizza could advertise on the Range Rover. Next could sponsor the gowns and the head gear could be sponsored by Crown paints. Phillip could be sponsored by Heart FM of Steliopolis's Kebeb Emporium.
