    I didn’t want to come off pissed. I’m sorry if it was perceived like that

    You did not come across that way, just that you assumed I put in Merkel when I deliberately avoided putting her in, so in terms of tone and whatnot, there’s no problems.

    I guess people could interpret the decisions of Thatcher in multiple ways as well. Those people would be wrong though.

    With thatcher it’s a bit more straightforward for some of the things she did and it’s wide ranging impacts. I don’t think Merkel decimated entire regions of germany the way thatcher did to britain, even though she made some people very rich.

    Merkel may have made choices that had undesired impacts, but thatcher was really something else.
