Definition von margaret thatcher im Englisch Englisch wörterbuch

a British politician in the Conservative Party, now officially called Baroness Thatcher, and sometimes called Maggie in the newspapers. She became leader of her party in 1975, and in 1979 became the UK's first woman Prime Minister, a position she held until 1990. She won three General Elections one after the other, and she had a great influence on British politics and on British life. Her ideas, which have become known as Thatcherism, have also influenced politicians in other countries. She reduced taxes, took away power from trade unions, and started a programme of privatization (=selling state-owned services such as electricity, gas, and the telephone service, so that they became private companies) . She was a strong and determined leader who would not change her mind easily and would not accept disagreement among her ministers. For this reason, she was sometimes called "the Iron Lady" (1925- )

(born 1925) prime minister of Great Britain (1979-1990)

Margaret Baroness Thatcher Thatcher

orig. Margaret Hilda Roberts born Oct. 13, 1925, Grantham, Lincolnshire, Eng. British politician and prime minister (1979-90). She earned a degree from the University of Oxford, where she was one of the first woman presidents of the Oxford University Conservative Association, then worked as a research chemist. After her marriage to Denis Thatcher (1951), she read for the bar and specialized in tax law. She was elected to Parliament in 1959 and served as secretary of state for education and science (1970-74). As a member of the Conservative Party's newly energetic right wing, she succeeded Edward Heath as party leader in 1975. In 1979 she became Britain's first woman prime minister. She advocated individual initiative, confronted the labour unions, privatized national industries and utilities and attempted to privatize aspects of health care and education, pursued a strong monetarist policy, and endorsed a firm commitment to NATO. Her landslide victory in 1983 owed partly to her decisive leadership in the Falkland Islands War. A split in party ranks over European monetary and political integration led to her resignation in 1990, by which time she had become Britain's longest continuously serving prime minister since 1827
