Margaret Thatcher's funeral

Baroness Thatcher died of a stroke in London on 8th April 2013 at the age of 87. On 17th April, the former Prime Minister was honoured with a ceremonial funeral. Due to the polarised view of her achievements and legacy, reaction to her death was mixed throughout the United Kingdom, with her memory evoking both intense praise and criticism. The funeral, including a formal procession through Central London, followed by a church service at St Paul's Cathedral, cost around £3.6 million including £3.1 million for security. The funeral was notable for the attendance of Queen Elizabeth II. All four of her successors as Prime Minister paid homage at the funeral. Her body was cremated at Mortlake Crematorium following the funeral.
