Washington, June 15 (ANI): Former Alaska Governor and ex-US vice presidential hopeful Sarah Palin has revealed an offer to meet one of her political idols - former British Prime Minister Baroness Margaret Thatcher.”Following an article in a British publication on Sunday, I’ve received questions about a possible trip to the United Kingdom,” the Huffington Post quotes Palin, as writing on her Facebook page.
“I have received an invitation for a visit to London, and part of that invitation included the offer of arranging a meeting between myself and one of my political heroines, the ‘Iron Lady’ Margaret Thatcher. I would love to meet her and hope I’ll be able to arrange the trip in the future,” she adds.
Palin revealed how Lady Thatcher inspires her politically.”Baroness Thatcher’s life and career serve as a blueprint for overcoming the odds and challenging the ’status quo. She started life as a grocer’s daughter from Grantham and rose to become Prime Minister - all by her own merit and hard work,” Palin writes.
“I cherish her example and will always count her as one of my role models,” Palin added. (ANI)
