Who was the highest-ranking British rep to go to Reagan’s? I don’t remember any actual officials going.

Not being combative. Just making a point. I don’t think leaders of nations should be expected to make major trips for a funeral. Now, assigning someone of reasonable rank, I guess. Even the VP I guess could be spared.

I don’t know. I think someone of decent importance should go, but I would not expect the Pres himself unless he actually worked with the deceased.

Our PM and Prince Charles both attended.

This is more symbolic than that, Thatcher isn’t any old PM like Reagan wasn’t any old President.
