Yep, Wikipedia, a very reliable resource for referenced articles. In this case every survey is referenced, usually to the website representing the organisations and newspapers in question. I'd hardly call a large collection of independent surveys, none of which are affiliated with Wikipedia, 'struggling'. Not that struggling is the right word anyway - I'm no Thatcher fan by any stretch - but I do think the point that very many in this country entirely disagree with some of the unpleasant sentiments in this thread needs to be pushed home.

To reiterate, every single survey ranks Thatcher above Wilson, often by a comfortable margin. Organisations involved include the University of Leeds, the BBC, The Times, British Politics Group, Mori and others.
