In fact there doesn't seem to be any middle ground of people who would say things like "Well she had her faults but she wasn't all that bad". People either think she was the most wonderful person to rule the UK, or that she destroyed the UK.

                        How so ? The ability to see greatness in others without invy is not ironic. Lack of this however is sad.
