Not that I care about being fair to Thatcher, but she wasn't the first.

The milk thing can be summarized as such:

• 1906, kids are malnourished, let's give them milk - some counties (LEAs but im trying to translate here) refused
• 1930, a bunch of counties are still refusing, they are encouraged
• 1945, schools are forced to give all children under 18 1/3 pint of milk a day (same government as founded the NHS btw)
• 1968 Harold Wilson's Labour govt cut this to under 11 years old
• 1971 Edward Heath instructs Thatcher (then Education Secretary) to cut it to under 7 years old, she does, many schools pay for the milk themselves instead
• 1977 the EU allows for extra funding to be claimed on 7-18 year olds for milk if they are malnourished
• 1978 uk provided funding back to up to 12 year olds if their families were on government assistance
• 1979 Thatcher elected
• 1980 widened the subsidies for milk again
• 1986 narrowed to only government assistance families again
• 1995 it was cut again now to children 5 and under where it remains today
• 1997 Blair elected, program for healthy school meals is started shifting the focus from "milk" to all food and drink.
• 1999 report claims children eat unhealthier than they did in 1950
• 2001 Celebrity chef Jamie Oliver starts his School Dinners Campaign

and the whole section 28 thing

to be fair, it wasn't literally that (but it kinda was)

basically instead of taxing you based on where you lived or what you earned, it was changed based on "you existing" (ie practically this meant you were registered to vote, and/or rented a property or other legal mechanism determining you address, but the most common one being voter registration).

so in order to dodge the tax people had to keep moving house or not register to vote and instead of voting... rioted.
