I'll take this one. Review to follow. SusunW (talk) 13:56, 31 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

created 29 Dec, nom 31 Dec - new enough; 2512 char - long enough; cited; neutral; no apparent copyvios; no image; QPQ done. Hook 0 at 140 char is under maximum; used and cited in the article; proves that politicians the world over have no regard for competence, preferring party loyalty (okay its sarcasm, but means there is broad appeal in the hooks); confirmed by source. All comments re Hook 0 apply to alt 1 save hook has 136 char. The only thing you might add is Conservative leader prior to Thatcher's name, but IMO it is fine as is and is GTG. 97198, thank you for creating the article. I enjoyed learning about her.
