It's a bunch of teenagers looking for an excuse to riot, they either have no idea what she did or she never affected them.
Wait, im confused as shit right now. So not only are these people celebrating that someone died of a stroke (Its not like she mauled children or flew planes into buildings), but now they are vandalising and destroying other peoples shit while celebrating death? These cunts have made themselves worse human beings than she ever was.
Hers a joke someone sent me: Maggie Thatcher arrived in hell two hours ago. she has already shut down three furnaces.
What a complete surprise the socialists lack any sense and are corrupt to his core
I think part of the problem with Thatcher's legacy is that the ugly end results (often carried out by Tony Blair, who was a bit of a Thatcherite himself) are still blighting us today, such as PFI schemes, the amount of corporate style management and target seeking in the public sector that ends in up in stuff like the Mid Staffs nightmare, the housing shortage (both social and commercial), badly handled privatisation and even fed into the 2008 Financial Crisis, where both deregulation and the 'soft-touch' approach of the FSA led to banks being exposed to far too risk with little oversight. I'm not saying everything she did was bad, but she was, and still is, a contentious person for a reason.

You take a sample of a population as a whole, and use that as a basis for the entire population. Most samples aren't too far from the reality if conducted properly.
