Britain had one female Prime Minister, Margaret Thatcher. She was a member of the Conservative Party, and was beaten in the 1997 general election by Labour's Tony Blair.
England has never had a Prime Minister, since the office was instituted (generally agreed to be Sir Robert Walpole in 1721) England is a part of but not the same as The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.
The office of Prime Minister has evolved down the Centuries to being what it is today- even before the English Civil War, which led to the Establishment of Parliamentary Government, there was a titular Head of Government, but he was appointed by the monarch and known by the title of 'First Lord of the Treasury'. The autonomy of Parliamentary Government remained heavily controlled by the monarch even after the Civil War, but the seeds for democratic rule had been sown and the first true Prime Minister is regarded by most historians as having been Sir Robert Walpole, who was in office from 1721-42.
From Walpole to Teresa May, who currently holds the office in 2017, there have been 76 British Prime Ministers, but remember that some of them are the same people who have held office on more than one occasion.
