Christine Cooper, Jonathan Tweedie, Jane Andrew and Max Baker use archival evidence to show how Margaret Thatcher wanted to make government ‘efficient’ through the adoption of business-like practices as soon as she came to power in 1979. Having been met with resistance in Whitehall, Thatcher used agencification to break this opposition, curtailing the workings of UK democracy in the process.
