Margaret Thatcher leaving No 10 Downing Street for the last time in 1990

Margaret Thatcher leaving No 10 Downing Street for the last time in 1990.
Y2K Politics
Following the " Winter of Discontent" that brought Jim Callaghans Labour Government to its knees, Margaret Thatcher became Britains first Woman Prime Minister in 1979 and gripped the 80s with an Iron Ladys fist. Thatcherism broke from the years of post-war consensus government, providing wealth-making opportunities for some but leaving many in the cold as the Welfare State was cut back, nationalised industries sold off and the Trades Unions crushed. By 1990, party divisions over Europe, Poll Tax reforms and private ambitions raised a leadership rebellion which, to her own amazement, toppled her in a palace coup. With tears in her eyes she paused on the steps of No 10 to deliver her last soundbite as PM, saying that it was time for "...a new chapter to open". The new chapter was John Major, Thatchers own choice
