It is 50 years ago this week that Margaret Thatcher became leader of the Conservative Party, and it’s a testament to her legacy that she’s being invoked by both Sir Keir Starmer and Kemi Badenoch.

When she became prime minister in 1979, she drove through radical policies like council house sales, privatisation and a crackdown on trade unions which continue to shape Britain today.

On the Sky News Daily, Niall is joined by chief political correspondent, Jon Craig to discuss how Margaret Thatcher’s legacy is still driving today’s politics. Plus he speaks to Caroline Slocock, former private secretary to Mrs Thatcher during her final 18 months in office on what she was like to work for.
