Whatever you think about Thatcher's influence on Britain, it seems odd to me, both for people to celebrate her death and to celebrate her life. Its the celebrity cult thing again, which makes people behave in very strange ways. Some people who knew her say she was a likeable person. It is actually possible that a likeable person could do very unlikeable things. Instead of downloading the wicked witch is dead song, buy and read this. I have no idea if David Harvey is a likeable man, but he has written a good book.
