"I believe that the role of government is to ensure that people have the freedom to make their own choices, and then to live with the consequences of those choices."
"I am a fighter. I have always been a fighter."
"I am not prepared to have my policies dictated by the trade unions."
"Freedom is indivisible. If you give it to one, you have to give it to all."
About Margaret Thatcher (1925-2013)
British Prime Minister (1979-1990) whose free-market reforms and confrontation with trade unions defined the late-20th-century right. Closely associated with Ronald Reagan (her closest international ally). For an intellectual contrast, see Tony Benn, Labour cabinet minister and democratic-socialist figurehead — Benn was the loudest parliamentary opposition to Thatcherism throughout the 1980s. His diaries and Thatcher's autobiography are the two opposing histories of the period — Britain's class politics is structured around which view was right.
