EX-Prime Minister Baroness Thatcher is in hospital after breaking her arm in a fall, it was revealed today.

A spokeswoman said the 83-year-old tripped over at home this morning and had broken a bone in her upper arm.

The 'iron lady' is said to be recovering well but will be kept in the Chelsea and Westminster Hospital overnight as a precaution.

It is the latest in a long line of health scares for the former Tory leader in recent years, including minor strokes.
