Document type: Declassified documents
Source: Thatcher MSS, Churchill Archive Centre: THCR 2/6/4/107 f121
Editorial comments:

Undated, but listed 19 July because the note refers to MT's speech to the 1922 Committee that afternoon, which was 19 July. Copy also in 2/6/4/107 f82. There was also some discussion in cabinet of election policy work on 4 July. Read all documents from the 1990 release of MT's party and personal papers.
