Recork your champagne: Margaret Thatcher is not dead. A French breaking news Twitter account LesNews apparently started a fake rumor that former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher had died. Their source: a tweet from a fake Carla Bruni Twitter account.

LesNews just tweeted this apology:

LesNews s'excusent auprès de ses abonnés l'info erronée. La méconnaissance du faux compte par notre rédacteur est en cause. Sincères regrets

Which is French for: "LOL, got ya." For all your Margaret Thatcher deathwatch needs, we recommend visiting isthatcherdeadyet.co.uk.
