Margaret Thatcher remains one of Britains most polarizing prime ministers. This provocative investigation sheds new light on the Iron Ladys war against the enemies within: striking miners, trades unionists, anti-nuclear protestors, feminists, gay rights campaigners and poll tax protesters. Drawing on countless news reports, studies and personal recollections, it sifts the real conspiracies from the theories that flourished in a paranoid age, to chart the lasting effects of the growth of the secret state on British society.
