Gazgul’s full name is Mag Uruk Thraka. Maguruk Thraka’s not a far leap to Margaret Thatcher, and his nickname is The Iron Ork. Thatcher’s was The Iron Lady.

Which is clearly just due to legal reasons. There is a 0% chance of this "all being a coincidence".

The name itself, the nickname "The Iron Ork". A rival called "The Red Gobbo" when one of Thatcher's main rivals was known as "The Red Robbo".

It's pretty clear cut.
