Abstract
Margaret Thatcher was ousted from the leadership of the Conservative Party in 1990 and the formal period of Thatcherism thus appeared to be at an end.

There was a change of style and evolutionary change as circumstances altered but the significant juncture came in May 1997 when a Labour government was returned for the first time in eighteen years.
