Mothers and teachers voice their concerns, but Margaret Thatcher defends her cuts and promises to plough the money that is saved back into school buildings. Public Record documents released in 2001 show Margaret Thatcher to have been very worried about the public reaction to the end of free milk, though she also proposed cuts in other areas. Arguing that charging for library books would be too controversial, she suggested instead that entry fees to national museums could be introduced. 09 Episode 9 Episode 928th June 1971 10 Playground of the Western World Episode 1023rd August 1971 "The grand object of travel," said Dr Johnson 200 years ago, "is to see the shores of the Mediterranean."
