“There are times, perhaps once every thirty years, when there is a sea change in politics. It then does not matter what you say or what you do. There is a shift in what the public wants and what it approves of. I suspect there is now such a sea change – and it is for Mrs Thatcher.”詹姆斯·卡拉汉(James Callaghan):(1912-2005)英国劳工政治家兼总理(1976-9)。在他担任总理期间,英国发生了许多罢工,包括冬天的不满,工党在下次大选中失败。卡拉汉于1987年成为终身同伴。
