With the two main political parties as far apart as at any time since the 1930s the period was riven by violent confrontation beginning with the explosion of rioting that rocked Englands cities in 1981 & again in 1985; a year-long fight with the National Union of Mineworkers & then with print workers in Wapping. There was the war to retake the Falkland Islands & the re-escalation of the troubles in Northern Ireland which began with hunger strikes & peaked with the attempt to assassinate the entire Cabinet in the Brighton bombing.
