That's why he didn't want to waste the opportunity to go to school. Moreover, his family often made sure that he got the best education. That was also supported by his parents to study at the University of Oxford in 1943. He majored in chemical science.
His education went smoothly. He was able to graduate in four years and immediately worked as a researcher at a local plastic company in Essex. However, that focus doesn't just take time to work. He continues to show his interest in politics.
That often follows the agenda of the British Conservative Party's activities. The existence brings results. His booming arguments and reasoning in each debate were able to show That. The Conservative Party was also attracted to make Thatcher the cadre.
That was accepted in the 1950s. The effort brought results. He managed to sit in the British Parliament in the 1960s. Careers are getting worse. He doesn't bother if his political opponent is the Labor Party. He was able to bring the Conservative Party to win the election.

11 years ago we saved Britain from the bad things caused by socialism. Once again Britain stands tall on the councils of Europe and the world. Over the past decade, we have returned power to the people on an unprecedented scale.
We have returned control to the people of their own lives and livelihoods. We are doing this by curbing the monopoly power of trade unions to control, even making workers victims of the most important decisions for them and their families, "explained Thatcher as quoted by Craig R. Whitney in his writing in The New York Times newspaper entitledChange in Britain: That's Say's She'll Stop (1990).
A series of policies made that more popular. He was able to bring England forward. Even if he had to sacrifice the fate of the workers. He was hated because of it. That doesn't really bother. All because of the presence of a lot of money can handle all the problems that Britain has. From conflict to crisis.
Later, the narrative made the British people furious. Moreover, that's when they started looking for new niches for state revenue. That's inflamed policies for all taxpayer British adults.

VOIR éGALEMENT:
For the first time, PM Margaret Thatcher, who has been on the political stage for 11 years, is threatened. Pressure for Thatcher to resign is getting stronger in the Conservative Party camp where he came from. It is said that the leaders of the ruling party are now aggressively looking for a new PM. Michael Heseltine, the former British Minister of Defense, who left the cabinet in 1986, is said to be a strong candidate.
Disclosure of the results of opinion collection shows the growing number of people who are disappointed with Thatcher's style of government. Especially after the government's decision to impose taxes on all British adults as a local obligation. It is estimated that 20 million British youths will have to pay taxes for the first time, which will take effect April 1 next. This tax is strongly opposed by the majority of the British people. Even by Thatcher's supporters. In the midst of the failure of the high interest rate preventing rising inflation rates (now reaching above 8%), the new tax provision is considered very strangled," wrote Tempo Magazine's report entitled Tekanan to Mundur(1990).
