When I walk into my office at the Ministry of Housing each morning, there is a wall of portraits of some of the great reforming ministers who’ve held my office in the post-war era. From Harold McMillan, Sir Keith Joseph to Michael Heseltine. I think that some of them have set out to build more homes, some to reform our undoubtedly complex and convoluted housing and planning system and some have used this office to breath new life into communities. Whether that’s London’s Docklands or inner city Liverpool.

The Supreme Court’s judgment in Cherry/Miller, quashing the Prime Minister’s advice to Her Majesty to prorogue Parliament and therefore the prorogation that followed, is momentous. It raises important questions about the nature of the constitution and the role of the courts therein. This event brings together leading jurists to debate the judgment’s merits and implications.

Based on unrestricted access to all Lady Thatcher’s papers, unpublished interviews with her and all her major colleagues, this third volume covers the final years of her premiership, from the 1987 General Election through to the “coup” against her within the Conservative Party that led to her resignation in 1990. It then takes the story to her death in 2013.
