mrs. thatcher's farewell speech
blackpool 1985
government apart，the strength of a civilized nation depends on the natural authority of the family，the school，the church and our great institutions. who is to answer the child crying for help?who is to protect the elderly couple?who can win back the youngster hooked on drugs?police，social workers，the voluntary organizations all must do respond. but that is not enough. we are the neighbors of that child，of that elderly couple，of that youngster. upholding the law can't be left to the police and the courts alone. we are all involved. we can not pass by on the other side.
come with us then towards the next decade. let us together set our sights on a britain that three out of four families own their homes，that owning shares is as common as having a car，where families have a degree of independence their forefathers could only dream about：a britain where there is a resurgence of enterprise，of more people selfemployed，more businesses and therefore more jobs;a britain where there is a standard health care far better than anything we have ever known.
yes!we have set our sights high，but these goals are within our reach. let us ensure that we'll bring them within our grasp.
in the past eight years something has changed in britain，perhaps the most important change for a generation. quite simply，it is a change of the spirit. people all over britain are finding a new confidence and a new pride.the conservative government didn't create that spirit. it's the true spirit of the british people. what we did was just set it free.we were determined to give people back the incentive to work and the confidence to save.that’s why we have to cut inflations：that’s why we would determine to take power from the trade union bosses and give it back to union members;and that's why we abolished a whole mass of controls，and we stopped government trying to run businesses，which is something politicians have never been much good at. so we privatised them. the manager is managed，the workers shared in the ownership and the industries turned from losses into profit. as a result of all this，the living standards in this country are the highest there have ever been. britain really is a country again and his prosperity is spreading steadily through the community.
