„There are people in this country who are the great destroyers; they wish to destroy the kind of free society we have. They wouldn’t have the freedom and the kind of society they wish to impose on us. Many of those people are in the unions. Many many people in the unions do not wish to strike, and I think many of those who struck in hospitals and in the ambulance service didn’t wish to. I’m not suggesting that every strike is dominated by those, but a number are.“

— Margaret Thatcher
