Iain Dale: Margaret Thatcher Public Lecture

St Peter’s School, York recently welcomed broadcaster and author Iain Dale in conversation with Rt Hon David Davis MP to discuss Dale’s new book, Margaret Thatcher: A Life in Ten Chapters. The evening explored the remarkable and often divisive legacy of Britain’s first female Prime Minister. Davis shared personal anecdotes from his time working with Thatcher, offering insights that revealed her character beyond the headlines, while Dale drew on his meticulous research to unpack some of the enduring myths surrounding the Iron Lady — from the misunderstood “milk snatcher” controversy to her defining political moments. The event, supported by Little Apple Bookshop, provided a fascinating glimpse into the life and leadership of one of the most influential figures in modern British history.
