Nikki Sinclaire MEP has spoken of her sadness on the passing of Margaret Thatcher today.

 

The West Midlands MEP lists Margaret Thatcher as one of her inspirations. At the age of 10 and from a working class background, Nikki found Baroness Thatcher inspirational and her example encouraged Nikki to embark on a political career herself.

 

Nikki later went on to meet Margaret Thatcher at a Bruges Group meeting where they spoke about Nikki standing as an MEP. Baroness Thatcher told Nikki to “Never give up, never give up”.

 

Nikki says,

 

“I am saddened by her death. I feel extremely privileged to have met her myself.

 

I accept that Margaret Thatcher was a polarising figure, however her legacy will live on.

 

She was the peace time saviour of Britain".
