Detail InformationEdit
The statue of Margaret Thatcher inside the Houses of Parliament, London, is a bronze sculpture of the first female Prime Minister of the United Kingdom Margaret Thatcher. It was ordered in 2003 following a change in Rules to allow the depiction of living Prime Ministers in Parliament under certain conditions. It was unveiled by Rt Hon. Michael Martin MP on 21 February 2007.The statue is 2.23 metres (7.3 ft) high, and made in bronze. The design of the statue is intended to show Margaret Thatcher during her final term as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, between 1987–1990. It stands directly opposite the statue of Sir Winston Churchill and the doors to the Commons Chamber. It shows her with her arm outstretched and posed as if addressing the House. It cost around £80,000, and weighs 451 kilograms (990 lb).
Historical rules prevented the erection of a statue in the Houses of Parliament of any living parliamentarian. However, in 2002 these rules were changed to allow for a statue or bust to be displayed of a former Prime Minister once five years have passed after their death, or when three Parliaments have elapsed after their resignation from the post. The second criterion is on the proviso that at least twelve years have passed and that they are no longer a sitting MP.
