Maggie is sitting at the table in the company of the tree male colleagues.
The waitress comes over.

Waitress= What would the lady like to order?
Maggie= I'll have a steak.
Waitress= How would you like it done?
Maggie=I'd like it rare, thank you.
Waitress= And the vegetables?

Maggie= They'll be having the same

Yeah, I was out of the country for all of the eighties, and just heard this last night on the radio on a program about political satire.

Yeah it's well out of date, but her reputation lives on.

I thought it was charlie too but wikipedia says

The dominance of a leader can often be reflected in rumours and myths. Two of Europe's most dominant Chiefs, Charles Haughey and Margaret Thatcher, both had the same mythical story told about them; how they were in a restaurant with their ministers. The waiter took the order for steak from Haughey/Thatcher and then asked "and what about the vegetables?" to which they received the reply "oh they'll have what I am having", implying that their boss thought that the ministers were mere vegetables! A variant of the story also exists in other states with "chief" leaders.
