Three months after Margaret Thatcher was elected as prime minister for her third term (June 1987) she gave an interview toWoman’s Ownmagazine in which she condemned those “children and people” who expected the government, as the representative of “society,” to sort their problems out. These reflections on personal, social and governmental responsibility, succinctly encapsulated later in the interview as “there’s no such thing as society, only individuals and families,” have resonated across the intervening years. That statement, made with such conviction, has become part of cultural history, fusing the image and the very person of Margaret Thatcher with the policies she was pursuing.
