CHAPTER 19

Forming the future: Conservatives

1987–92

Housing was the area where Margaret Thatcher thought it was easiest to start to dismantle the dependency culture.

Nicholas Ridley, My Style of Government, pp. 86–7

There is no such thing as society. There are individual men and women, and there are families. And no government can do anything except through people, and people must look after themselves first. It is our duty to look after ourselves and then to look after our neighbour.

Margaret Thatcher, Woman’s Own, 31 October 1987
