Thatcher to get 'ceremonial' funeral

FORMER British prime minister Margaret Thatcher will receive a "ceremonial funeral" with military honours, but she will not get a state funeral.

Downing Street says Queen Elizabeth II has authorised a ceremonial funeral - a step short of a state funeral - to be held at St Paul's Cathedral.

Cameron cut short a trip to Europe following news of Thatcher's death.

Downing Street says the funeral will be attended by a "wide and diverse range of people," and the service will be followed by a private cremation.

It did not provide further details on the timing of the service, saying only that the arrangement are "in line with the wishes" of Thatcher's family.

Cameron was in Madrid for talks with Spanish premier Mariano Rajoy.

He had been due to travel to Paris on Monday evening for talks with French President Francois Hollande, but Downing Street confirmed that had now been postponed.
