IN the heart of Paris, between the Champs-Elysees and the River Seine, sits Avenue Winston Churchill. So why not a Rue Margaret Thatcher, some French politicians are asking.
A conservative city councilor, Jerome Dubus, will propose that the French capital pay homage to Britain's former prime minister by naming a street after her. Thatcher died on Monday.
The head of the council's far-left party, Ian Brossat, countered with a proposal to honor Bobby Sands, an IRA prisoner who died in a 1981 hunger strike to which Thatcher refused to yield over British rule in Northern Ireland.
