    Default by interfering

    Angus Robertson, SNP Westminster group leader, pointed out that there were fewer conservative MPs in Scotland than Panda's in Edinburgh Zoo and accused the Prime Minister of behaving like Margaret Thatcher by interfering.
    (Scotland warned it could lose the pound and be forced to join Euro as price of independence; The Telegraph)

    Have I understood it right that, in Angus Robertson's opinion, Margaret Thatcher was interfering in some situations at the time and the Prime Minister behaves now the same way?

    Thanks.

    I read it as:

    and accused the Prime Minister of interfering, much like the behavior of Margaret Thatcher.
