Maggie sale makes millions as bidders scramble for a piece of history (Shame our great museums weren't among them...) By okwudiri for proudstars
A quarter of a century after leaving Downing Street, the belongings of former Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher were being sold off at Christie's auction house with the sale making millions. It comes after the V&A Museum reportedly turned down the chance to exhibit the collection - a claim denied by the museum. Among the items that sold were a red ministerial dispatch box for £242,000 as well as clothes, jewellery and signed pictures.
