Former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher has been celebrating her 70th birthday in grand style in London.
Britain's Queen Elizabeth and Thatcher's successor as Prime Minister John Major were amongst the guests at the dinner party at Claridge's Hotel.
The list included friends from the political world and showbusiness stars, as well as family members.
More than 200 people gathered at Claridge's, one of London's top hotels, for a gala dinner to celebrate Baroness Thatcher's 70th birthday.
Lady Thatcher's successor as British Prime Minister, John Major, and his wife, Norma, were amongst the first V-I-Ps to arrive.
Next to join the party were Queen Elizabeth and her husband Prince Philip, greeted on their arrival by Lady Thatcher and her husband Denis.
Lady Thatcher was the longest serving prime minister of the Queen's reign - the two women met every week for 11 years while the so-called Iron Lady was in office.
The party brought friends from the arts, like film actor Michael Caine, with his wife Shakira.
And her twin children were there too ; businessman son Mark and his Texan wife Diane helped organise guests as they arrived.
And journalist daughter Carol Thatcher chatted with guests before the dinner got under way.
Conservative Cabinet ministers past and present were there, including current Defence Secretary Michael Portillo, seen by some as Thatcher's ideological heir.
His nationalist remarks about Britain's role in Europe at last week's Conservative party conference caused a storm of controversy.
Friends from the business world, like Anglo-French billionaire financier Sir James Goldsmith, turned out to pay tribute to the former leader.
But another former prime minister spotted at Claridge's wasn't there for the party.
Edward Heath - Baroness Thatcher's predecessor - was attending another event, and left just as the celebration was getting under way.
Its no secret that there's little love lost between the two former Conservative leaders. Mrs Thatcher's rise to the top began when she successfully challenged Heath for the party leadership.
She became Britain's first woman Prime Minister in 1979, winning three general elections, before she was deposed by her own party in 1990.
This event won't be her last birthday bash - Lady Thatcher is set to travel to Washington to celebrate with another 800 guests early next week.

Olivia Colman and Gillian Anderson arriving at the Emmys to collect all their awards
Ameeeeen... 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Totalmente!!
Lol. They both did a great job, although Anderson’s Thatcher was a bit too low and slow for me, and Coleman a little too po-faced. But I still loved their portrayals.
✨ICONIC MOMENT✨
Lol
Oh look, Olivia Colman and Gillian Anderson!
Can’t wait for season 4! It’s gonna be epic!
I can hear "Your Majesty" in Gillian's voice
That woman just sat and watched without any care in the world when the Queen walked pass, like it happens all the time. Lol
It was either a massive sign of disrespect, or she'd been drinking, all day!
she probably didn't know what to do
@@danielw5850 🤣🤣🤣
@@danielw5850 I will go for the second one 🍻 cheers
Or maybe it has something to do with security
The lady on the couch: "yeah, that's right, I know who you are and I couldn't care less" 😁
Same thought exactly!
she barely moved
You saw how the queen took a double look at her ... lol "You're not getting up !?"
They had told her Diana is coming! so she was a bit confused...
@@leilaskylerkaleh5042 Diana had no business going into that party. That party was for stateswomen and female leaders, it wasnt for weak women like Diana who have no clue on state matters
This was in 1995. Odd that the date isn't listed anywhere in the info section of the upload.
Well anyone can work it out given her birth year was 1925
@@liamb8644 That's not the point lol
Thank you for the information! I was wondering what year it was
Right!! I kept looking for it in the description. It should be in the title, or in the video, or at least the info section
Thanks, I was wondering
The queen always had a great affection and admiration for Lady Margaret Tatcher, in fact both they both have an education, a posture and a class that are remarkable.
I suggest you study up buddy because that's the furthest thing from the truth. Queen hated Margaret Thatcher and Margaret Thatcher hated everyone It wasn't exactly in 100% agreement with her. She was a bitch.
@@jonesjw765 So this just confirms what a lot of people have told me, that the English are the biggest hypocrites on this planet! Ah ah ah anyway i LOVE Margaret and the Queen.
Jose Carrvalho she became Lady Thatcher, not Lady Margaret Thatcher
and she didn't have class
The late Queen and Margaret Thatcher never changed their hairstyles... imagine having the same hairstyle year in, year out, decade in, decade out!
Oh gosh deep curtsy like in the netflix the crown. Smooth
i really liked how they thought of small details!
Yes, she was famous for her very low courtesy. She ordered Denise to give a very low head drop too. Thatcher (the milk snatcher) - as she was affectionately known when she was Minister of Education under the Heath government. I never approved of free school milk. I never drank it throughout my schooling in the 1950s to 1960s. I'm a lifelong vegan. Long before it became fashionable now.
When her Majesty the Queen comes to your 70th you can feel pretty damn proud. Maggie deserved it ...
RIP Maggie. You did us proud.
1 chish Believe me "Maggie" will not Rest in Peace. War criminals go to hell.
@Mr Spoon But it is not important. Maybe British Queen Elisabeth II Windsor may next day went to Blair`s house for a cup of tea but A. Blair is war criminal 1999 ( only two NATO countries accept to bombing Serbs after 50 days: USA and UK ). EULex arrest their allies from KLA now for war crimes.
Second Gulf war 2003: A. Blie continue with war crimes in Iraq . Do not write me that he did not know about
USA ( Gen. Powell, G. Bush Jr.) lied whole world that Iraqi President Saddam Hussein do not have " weapons
for mass destruction". Even British PM Blair the coalition aimed "to disarm Iraq of weapons of mass destruction, to end Saddam Hussein's support for terrorism, and to free the Iraqi people."[27] Others place a much greater emphasis on the impact of the September 11 attacks, on the role this played in changing U.S. strategic calculations, and the rise of the freedom agenda.[28][29] According to Blair, the trigger was Iraq's failure to take a "final opportunity" to disarm itself of alleged nuclear, chemical, and biological weapons that U.S. and British officials called an immediate and intolerable threat to world peace.[30]

Maggie was a war criminal, a witch
@@vir4193 So what war crimes did Maggie commit (let alone be convicted)?
And witch?
You sound like a very sad Leftie ....
it's amazing how this iron lady bows so deeply to the queen. She really had the utmost respect to this heritage.
Thatcher was a huge fan of the monarchy.
Michael Caine 1:54 “......propose.......know what I mean ?” 😂
The Queen wasnt so much a fan of thatcher though
erik waarder Anything to back that up at all ?
@@user-br3bw7wr2l a well known fact, just look it up
The way it looks like ted heath saw who’s birthday party it was and got back in his car😂😂😂😂
He happened to be at another event in the hotel.
When asked to name PMs for GB, Thatcher and Churchill are only the names I can remember.
What about Blair and his war crimes with Bush?
What about Theresa May
Perhaps read books and pay attention to history?

I have been blow away by Gillian Anderson's portrayal. It is simply amazing!
Isn't she magnificent?!
Yeah, the Queen obviously hated Thatcher - that’s why she attended Thatchers birthdays and funeral...
one must remember that Hollywood and most major media hates any figure associated with Conservatism. They would not want their star character; Queen elizabeth to look in any way sympathetic to a personality from the right wing.
There is a surprise in the last episode of the crown
@Firstname Lastname fuck the queen and the entire family
@@MistaAnonymous Exactly they don’t give a fuck about us!
@@josephfaux5777 Oh shut up.
They are beautiful these two Ladies!! I am from Poland, but I admire them for a long long time. They are examples for us, women, they showed us how to gain respect and preserve dignity all the time! God bless your Queen and, of course, deepest respect for the memory of Lady Margaret Thatcher
Thatcher deeply admired Poland for your anti-communist Solidarnosc movement. Reagan-Thatcher-John Paul II and the Polish nation were a kind of informal alliance to bring communism down. That was one of the great moments of Western civilization.
"Lady"Thatcher is burning in hell now for her anti-humanious ideas.
@@valiko51 Are you a religious fanatic ?
@@andy99ish and are you blind and deaf? Didn't you hear what that woman was telling about necessity to get rid of more than 100 millions of Russians and other slavics? It was said in public and you can find docs on the internet. She was more Nazi than ....Devilish woman. A AAA, yes, you,the Poles, don't consider yourselves slavic any more😏 By the way, I am Orthodox christian.
@@valiko51 The one who eliminated millions of Russians was Stalin. And the communist system generally. Still many Russians today admire Stalin / have a nostalgic longing for communism. And the orthodox church of Russia was quite regime friendly towards the communist system.
Thatcher was one of those who have liberated the world from communism. So please, do yourself a favor and open YOUR eyes and ears.
Britain firmly ruled by 2 top-ladies 1979-1990.
Maggie Thatcher was an exceptional woman and HM the Queen still is an exceptional lady.
Really now? The maffia of the mediocre. I do not think thatcher and the Queen want to have anything to do with that lot
3 top ladies. Princess of Wales, The Queen, The Prime Minister
@@Cat-by7ip Diana was not even the ruler of her own life let alone anybody else!
@@Cat-by7ip no sorry, Queen and Margaret come first. They were Stateswomen, they run the country, they were leaders. Diana was nothing, she played no role in history
some says that old girl who remained sit at 1:30 when the queen walked pass her was reported missing on the next day and remains the unsolved mystery of a missing person until today
🤣that is not true
What??? Maybe she kidnapping by alien
that was me ... i had a sore leg that day ... duhhh
Such classy people! This looked like a rather grand occasion

Two great ladies! We need them now more than ever.
both in black for a birthday/more like funeral wear/KING DAVID LIVED TO 70 did he wear black on that glorious day?/thank you for making history in 1979 not just for becoming first female prime minister but far more importantly for being first and only winner to recite a prayer/ st francis of assisi prayer/on winning
🤣
no we don't
Love this footage
My dear Iron Lady curtsies all the way down to Australia!!❤️❤️
She was ridiculous. Her excessive deference irritated the Queen.
@@seansmith445 Yes, and you irritate me, as well, so go away!!!!
@@lordrobert12 And she used to mock her ridiculous fake posh accent!
@@seansmith445 To go from the middle class to the upper class is not easy!! She was the best prime minister since Churchill and you sound more ridiculous with your meaningless observations so do stop whilst your behind!!
Really nice to see The Queen with Baroness Thatcher. Dennis Thatcher must have been extremely proud to have such a beautiful wife.
Denis is quoted as saying in 1991, "For over 40 years I've been married to one of the greatest women the world has ever produced. All I could offer, as small as it was, was love and loyalty." He was indeed proud of her and she of him.
@@jeanalarson3108 How beautiful.
@@ROCKINGMAN Indeed, what an amazing woman.
1:30 it made me feel uneasy seeing someone sit while Her Majesty is present lol. Her Majesty looked at her too like "Um?"
The Queen gave her a double-take 🤣
THEN the woman had the nerve to totally check out Prince Phillip's ass 🤣
Yes I couldn't believe she just sat there.
I saw that as well. However, this can happen living in London: For private events the Queen moves around with minimal fuss (You'll notice they came in by the small door and not the main door for example) so you can easily be caught unawares by the Queen. I think this is what happened here. The woman was resting her feet, and expecting someone of fairly high celebrity to enter, such as a Hollywood actor, but you can tell by her nonplussed face that she is simply agog that it is in fact the Queen, and she simply totally closes down psychologically. I live in London, and I have seen how the Queen attends things without fanfare, and have heard more than once of how people suddenly see her without any forewarning. (Notice also how the others in the Queen's party also look back disbelievingly at the unfortunate lady's inert reaction). From the body language you can tell that she was caught unawares. The Queen's subtle but clear reaction is priceless though!!!!!
@@johncurrie6693 Why? We all don't go gaga over her lol.
Pius X It’s Royal protocol.
Mrs Thatcher has got one of the best curtsies. ❣️
What an amazing performance! Some how I start to like Thatcher equally as much, as I respect the Queen! Looks like she is nicely on track?
Who is that lady not standing when queen enter the hall
She is ignorant.
Kev L maybe a higher rank internationally than the Queen
@@erminedereims400 Unless she is a Head of State then no she is not.
Perhaps she was handicapped and unable to stand.
@@erminedereims400 on a couch? In the hall like a drunk?
I cant help but feel that Edward Heath arranged an excuse to be there prior just so he could be seen leaving and snubbing the party Haha
I think that it was one of those crazy coincidences and that he had been at a different event
He was a silly bitter old man.
Hated how Maggie took the
Leadership. He was just another
Old grey man presiding over the
Decline of Great Britain.
Complete waste of space, probably
Wanting to go yatching with
Young boys. Pedo !!!
Bueno días también porfa en español está muy interesante el vídeo gracias
Thank you. So famous people. So interesting!
Wonderful video.
I know Ted Heath hated Margaret Thatcher but I was surprised to see him going as everyone else was arriving.
He was at a different event
Elizabeth 2nd and mrs thatcher are both unique in the fact there will never be those to fill their shoes.
thank fuck.
The queen is unique. Thatcher is nothing special. Overrated.
1:28 How was that woman just allowed to sit there? The Queen looked at her like ‘stand up woman’. Elizabeth looked very nice in that outfit.
She probably wasn’t British or aware of the protocol or the other rationale I can offer is she didn’t give AF.
@@jak30341 ... Lool probably the latter! She knew Damn well what was going on, if she’s in the building before the Queen she’s part of the set up. She was probably like chiile my feet hurt, ain’t nobody got time for this!

Elizabeth: who is that bitch?
Margaret: i don't know her
My mumy at 70 years old looked like the Mrs. Margareth"s daughter. Really. Same sixties comb.
Christ, Santiago, Chile.
1:29 how deep was that stare from HM

why don't you ever write date of record in the description?
the lady sitting no need to bow to the Queen amazed me
i smell a lot of chanel in the room? would it be true? lol
Funny to see the two pair of consorts; prince Phillip and Dennys Thatcher, bought doing the same way placing their arms behind while walking behind their respective wives.
1:28 The two most classy and charming women in the entire uk ever!
Michael Portillo so handsome there 😂
Who was that mysterious lady sitting by the entrance who did neither rise nor stand up when HM the Queen had entered (so the latter simply neglected her 🙂🙂)?
Funny because The Queen didn't wanted to be rude just passing by, so she stared the old lady. But she actually was barely looking to Her Majesty.
It's also my question😂
At least she can smile or do sth.
Ultimate Rudeness. She deserved the Glaring Stare from Her Majesty.
I had to look again, what an ignorant woman, it didn't go unnoticed by the Queen who looked slightly taken aback, she should have been removed
Most Amazing Queen and Happy Birthday The Iron Lady!!!

One of the Best Prime Ministers this Country has ever had...... she would make mincemeat of today's parliamentary labour politicians at PM's questions.
hahahah he said "...today's parliamentary Labour politicians...". lol lol lol. That's a good one! Other words spring to mind when I hear about them!!!
The Labour politicians just made mincemeat of Boris "party boy" Johnson at P.M.'s questions. It was lovely to watch!
No, they only think they did, he's teflon coated, do you really think that bothers Boris ? think again.
I’m going to give the lady sitting the benefit of the doubt - she may have personal problems ( health issues,etc) - but the correct thing to do when ANYONE enters a room is to stand. People here ask would the Queen have stood if it was the other way round? The answer is yes. She’s never on her backside when she’s receiving guests, is she? I was always told to do this at school. Standards have slipped now.
Why don't you write the date in the discreption ?!!
All your videos . Same problem
2.06 was that camilla parker bowles???
Lady sitting down is a mood
Who the heck is she
Ppl stop making a fuss over that lady but standing. Maybe she cant stand . She's seated directly across from the guy . So maybe the Queen already knows . Btw its said the Queen doesnt care about bows , curtsey, and all that nonesense. It's the ppl obsessed with protocol who are .
Two of the most beautiful human beings ever had in UK
Surely the lady on the sofa could have got up!
Bullshit. 🤮
Michael Caine is the dude..
James Bond of the time..
Yes I saw Michael Caine there, not many people know that
The Crown season 4 episode 10
Who was the lady sitting by the door?
Being Scottish not Thatcher supporter BUT respect her Had more Balls than any before & after her Falk!ands ,Libyan Embassy she let World know don't mess with us Story SAS afterwards all watching on TV & typical Scot shouts "Hey move yer f#ckin heid " not realising was Maggie's head who simply moved head replied "Oh Sorry" lol Had drink with hero's Her Boys called them
thank you
Best and tough prime minister I’ve seen in my life, shame she was stabbed in the back
And now they're stabbing the population in the back.
Too bad they didn't do it earlier.
This might be in Crown Season 5!!
Who is here after The Crown Season 4?
who is the couple at 1:50
and where is d.edna ?
The good old days with our Regal Queen and Lady Thatcher our Iron lady bless her late Majesty the Queen and Lady Thatcher both greatly and sadly missed 🥰😢
1:30 How dare the woman sit when her Majesty is walking in front of her.
Quite rude and imprudent of her...
Exactly.
Extremly rude.
OFF WITH THEIR HEAD!!! 😂😂😂
The lady might have had a long day. One should never call that lady rude she or ANYONE for that matter should not have to stand all humans should be treated the same,
😪😪😪😪😪
I was thinking that. No matter how tired, courtesy costs nothing.
In what year was this?
Hidgrats year !
1995!
I don’t care what ppl say they we’re friends
The Prime Minister with balls.
Bigger than Boris's!
i didn't know she had a surgery ... wow !
I think Cameron has less balls then Thatcher did too.
Did she have a Penistone also ? A hermodite?
I swear thatcher got more swagger than the queen me like 😭😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣

She was second great woman ( after the queen ) at that time
She is Legend😘🥰❤❤❤❤
Yes, the legend of the worst bastards in history
@@andreafiori3244 no
She cleaned up Britain during its worst labour govt in the 70’s. Being the 1st woman prime minister the UK ever had who had balls bigger than anyone on earth. Her likes is truly missed.

It sure doesn't look like the Queen and Lady Thatcher had anything but mutual respect for one another here.
😂🤣😅 No surprise that Eward Heath was leaving early! Astonishing that he even showed up!
Margaret Thatcher attended his funeral.
@@stevebbuk True but that was just a "former prime minister thing" I guess. They really hated eachother and (in several interviews) PUBLICLY SAID SO!! 😂
@@MarioStahl1983 They never stated there was mutual hate. She said there was a "difference in emphasis" in economic policy and often said "we all know Ted." He said "Rejoice, rejoice" when she was ousted. Enmity maybe, but not hatred surely?
@@stevebbuk I think you just decribed some of the famous situations yourself. Believe me, in the world of politics that's REAL HATRED. Edward Heath didn't even say that about Saddam Hussein, okay!! 😂
Come on!
Bu there is something very interesting to your comment. It semms like you want them not to hate eachother. ThatÄs kinda cute. Do you retroactively wish they had been friends? That's really strange. But, again, kinda cute.
@@MarioStahl1983 Edward Heath gave Margaret Thatcher her first job as Education Secretary in 1970. They were both Oxford graduates. She complimented him after the General Election loss of 1974 by telling him it had been a pleasure to serve in his cabinet. She forewarned him that she was going to stand against him for the leadership in 1975. She never badmouthed him publicly as far as I'm aware, and as I say attended his funeral in 2005.
Who this lady who continues seating when queen arrives and walks next to her ? ;)
WHAT A GREAT LADY! she could never forget her modest female background. truly exceptional indeed
