Yes, Margaret Thatcher's government ended the provision of free milk for schoolchildren in the UK in 1971, a policy that became widely known as "Thatcher's milk snatch." This decision was part of broader educational reforms aimed at reducing government spending. The move was controversial and led to significant public backlash, particularly among parents and teachers.
Very well actually, contrary to popular belief about the milk fiasco.
The postwar Labour government instituted a free quarter-pint milk 'ration' for every primary school pupil. This policy continued during the 1951-64 Conservative Party's term of government. When the Conservatives were re-elected in 1970, Ted Heath made Maggie Thatcher schools minister and she started charging parents for the milk.
In an attempt to save peoples tax money , as te re was a small recession on , she wated to stop the free ice cream given to school children. The people then reacted by shouting a slogan . THATCHER THATCHER ICECREAM SNATCHER. absolutely wrong. She removed free milk from school children, ice cream was never provided. Before her political career, she was a chemist who worked on the team that invented Mr Whippy (Mr. Softee) style soft ice cream. It is worth pointing out also that Thatcher only withdrew milk from PRIMARY school children above the age of 7. Harold Wilson of the Labour government actually removed free school milk for ALL children above the age of 7 in 1968 so it is kind of ironic that Thatcher is remembered in such light.
