Reporting on the discussion about whether Margaret Thatcher should receive a state funeral is focused on the "venom" of letters to The Guardian.
Most quoted seems to be:
Thatcher should only be allowed a state funeral if the contract is put out to compulsory competitive tender and awarded to the lowest bidder. Any offers?
Rob Watling

Mail Online (The Daily Mail) asked Why is the Left so full of hate for Lady Thatcher?
Nil nisi bonum de mortuis dicere...
...but she is not yet dead.
The Guardian also reported that:
...plans for a formal procession could be jeopardised by a lack of troops to line the route as the armed forces were overstretched in Afghanistan and Iraq.
