"We are a grandmother" = chúng ta đều là bà nội -> câu nói của Thủ tướng Anh Margaret Thatcher tới báo chí năm 1989 khi đón đứa cháu đầu lòng, Michael, con trai của Mark Thatcher.
Ví dụ
Famously and presumptuously (tự tin) using the royal "we" to describe herself after the birth of her first grandchild, "We are a grandmother," she told the press in a headline that was quickly broadcast around the world.
Actually, I loved this play, which imagines what passed between Her Maj and Mrs T during their weekly audiences when the ‘Iron Lady’ reigned at 10 Downing Street and became ever more regal. Remember “We are a grandmother”? It’s in the play, along with much else to make this a bit of a nostalgia (hoài niệm) trip for those who remember Maggie’s decade.
He in turn appears to have regarded embassies and their staff as little more than family retainers, an attitude (thái độ) which, again, may not seem so surprising when you remember that Mrs Thatcher greeted the news of the arrival of Mark’s first child with ‘We are a grandmother.’
Her mother-in-law had invited so many guests that some of the Burgdorfs had to stand outside. Two years later, when Michael was born, the prime minister proudly announced to the press corps (nhóm) in Downing Street: “We are a grandmother.”
