Thatcher’s death

Margaret Thatcher’s death became public right on print deadline, April 7.

I filed an initial story, then updated it on the web overnight, adding a story on the ‘Ding Dong the witch is dead‘ reaction which was shared more than 1600 times on social media.

Subsequent stories were:

‘Next day’ reaction, as the debate over her legacy fired up.

A Saturday feature which was my own take on her legacy.

Coverage of the ‘death party‘ in Trafalgar Square.

A preview of funeral plans.

A report on the funeral (an early version was filed for the paper’s first edition, then updated for a later edition).
