Notes from Wikiquote

Negus: Why do people stop us in the street almost and tell us that Margaret Thatcher isn't just inflexible, she's not just single-minded, on occasions she's plain pig-headed and won't be told by anybody? | Thatcher: Would you tell me who has stopped you in the street and said that? | Negus: Ordinary Britons... | Thatcher: Where? | Negus: In conversation, in pubs... | Thatcher (interrupting): I thought you'd just come from Belize | Negus: Oh this is not the first time we've been here. | Thatcher: Will you tell me who, and where and when? | Negus: Ordinary Britons in restaurants and cabs | Thatcher: How many? | Negus: ...in cabs | Thatcher: How many? | Negus: I would say at least one in two | Thatcher: Why won't you tell me their names and who they are? | In an interview with George Negus for the Australian TV program 60 minutes
