Margaret Thatcher on a United Europe

Margaret Thatcher on a united Europe

As a good Tory, MP Margaret Thatcher campaigned for continued inclusion in the European Common Market in 1975 (but note that her Euro Jumper still had the Union Jack most prominent).  

However, regarding British sovereignty, transparency and free markets, Thatcher would be an unrepentant Eur-skeptic, as demonstrated by her 1990 Prime Minister question time colloquy.
