If we're talking Thatcher's policies some bangers that people for some reason never bring up, she is also responsible for:

* Countless (they literally didn't bother to count) deaths caused because she refused to release accurate guidance during the height of the HIV epidemic, she didn't want the public knowing about sexual acts she disapproved of.

* Countless (again) STDs, rape, child abuse and suicide cases because she made it illegal for teachers to inform nor support students about LGBTQ issues. The average LGBTQ teenager who finished school before 2003 received ZERO sexual education catered to their actual needs, and ZERO support for the bullying they would be receiving.

I think in general people demonise her rightly, because in 2026 she would be seen as a vicious monster of a person. It is not enough to just be really great for free trade in the current era, we are beyond the point that we have to settle for unhinged backwards politics just for that.
