Top 9 events of 1980

1981 - The wedding of Princess Diana and Prince Charles

In the media, the marriage of Lady Diana Spencer and Prince Charles seemed like a fairytale. It was certainly the most important event of the year to British Media, Diana and Charles' marriage, would provide drama for years to come even after their divorce 15 years later, in 1996. The events taking place after their divorce changing peoples view of the monarchy to this day.

1982 - Falklands War

The defining military conflict for Britain in the 1980s. the Falklands War, started when Argentina occupied the British dependent territories of the Falkland Islands as well as South Georgia and. the Sandwich Islands. Hostilities were 10 weeks long and the British military response resulted in Argentina's 'waving of the white flag'. Interestingly, the war helped to improve life for both the Islanders and the Argentinians, the former having their British citizenship restored and economy boosted, while the latter saw the government's military image crumble and democracy restored the next year.

1983 - Thatcher wins landslide

Another outcome, positively or negatively viewed, of the Falklands War for Britain was the boost in popularity that Margaret Thatcher received for the successful outcome. Favourable opinion polls for the Conservative Party left Labour and Liberal/Social Democratic Party Alliance far behind. In cosequence, the Tories gained 58 seats in the 1983 General Election and secured another term as Prime Minister for Margaret Thatcher.

1984 - Miner's Strike

Starting on the 6th of March in 1984, the Miner's Strike was a walkout in protest of coal mine (also known as colliery) closures in the UK by Thatcher's Conservative government. The National Union of Mineworkers struck for a year until many returned to work when the Union pay ran out. This dramatically reduced the power of the union to negotiate with the government which arguably made the situation worse for both miners and customers, who switched to gas or found other providers.

1985 - Live Aid

Founded by musicians and philanthropists Bob Geldof and Midge Ure, Live Aid was a benefit concert for famine relief in Ethiopia held simultaneously at JFK Stadium in Philadelphia and Wembley Stadium in London. Acts in London included Adam Ant, Sting, Phil Collins, U2, Dire Straits, David Bowie, The Who, and Queen, amongst other. The concerts raised over $127 million for famine relief.

1986 - Major industries privatised

A major goal of the Thatcher government was to privatise many industries that had been nationalised in the early 20th century. Amongst the industries that went private within a couple years of 1986 included British Gas, British Airways, the National Bus Company, Rolls-Royce, Council Houses and many more. The privatisation was pushed aggressively by the Tories who relied on their overwhelming majority to accomplish their political goals. Pushback from the public and a weakened Conservative government led to a slowing of these efforts.

1987 - Thatcher wins third general election for Conservatives

In what might have been a reality check for some of the Tories' more aggressive policies since the landslide in 1983, the Conservative Party lost 21 seats in Parliament after the 1987 General Election. While still enough to give Margaret Thatcher another go at Prime Minister, nothing was really the same. Pushback against privatisation led Conservatives to pursue other issues and sometimes individual agendas and was arguably the beginning of the end for Margaret Thatcher's premiership.

1988 - Liberal Democratic Party Forms

The previous alliance between the Liberal Party and the Socialist Democratic Party had between around since the 1970s but in ten years had failed to achieve its goal of supplanting Labour as the UK's other major political party. In response to the 1987 General Election, in 1988, the two merged to become the Social and Liberal Democratic Party eventually just known simply as the Liberal Democratic Party eventually just Lib Dems.

1989 - Tim Berners-Lee invents the world wide web

Arguably the most significant technological advance of the 20th Century, the world wide web (or web as we know it today), was the creation of Sir Tim Berners-Lee in 1989. It was the product of Berners-Lee's merger of hypertext with the internet to create an information sharing network amongst researchers. The first public web pages appeared only four years later and has revolutionised our world.

1980s Britain - Pt 1

The 1980s had two sides, each a dramatic opposite to the other. There was a recession and unemployment rate boomed from 5.3% to 14.1% between the years 1979 and 1986 this settled itself back to 5.6% by 1990. For people with a stable job income had risen and people were being payed more.

The percentage of the workforce in manufacturing industries fell while the percentage in service industries rose, part of a process sometimes called deindustrialisation. The government privatised certain industries. British TeleCom was sold in 1984 and British Gas was sold in 1986.

Throughout the 1980s the government passed laws restricting the powers of the trad unions. The government had a policy of selling council houses cheaply to their occupiers. Which meant living in a council house became less common. Home ownership had once again become a more common living situation for the people of Britain.

Until 1982 there were only 3 TV channels in Britain but Channel 4 began broadcasting. When the 1980s began video players became more common and there were many shops where you could hire videos. New games came up for sale and, in 1982, Trivial Pursuit was introduced. It was followed by Pictionary in 1985. And in the 80's long distance holidays became more popular and travel to other continents for longer vacations was quite common.

The walkman, a portable music player, was introduced in 1980. CD players first went on sale in 1983, and home computers became extremely popular during the decade.

1960s 'Drugs and Music'

One of the biggest, defining aspect of the 1960s was music. Although rock and roll began having an effect on Britain in the 1950s, it wasn't until the early Sixties and the emergence of 'British invasion' groups like The Beatles, that music truly began its revolutionary changes. The Beatles are an excellent example of how music influenced the lives of young britons. Although they continues the rock and roll genre of the 1950s for the early part of the decade, by 1967 Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band became the turning point in music and inspired other musicians, such as The Beach Boys and The Rolling Stones, to experiment with new sounds and develop innovative pieces of music. Their later albums included lyrics encouraging rebellion against the authorities, as seen in 'Revolution'. Young people began to stand up for their beliefs and individuality.

Recreational drugs were also synonymous with the Sixties and became more commonly used in the latter part of the decade. Images of the Woodstock festival show people high on marijuana and LSD, dancing in fields with paint on their face and their hair flowing free. It was very difficult for anyone in how business to avoid becoming involved in drugs in some ways and as easily influenced as young people looking for fun, many were encouraged to follow their idols and take hallucinogenic drugs. LSD made people feel happy and optimistic and helped bring about the 'hippie' movement. The effects of these drugs were also reflected in psychedelic art and films, bringing new, vibrant and exciting colours and patterns to the forefront. The 'Yellow Submarine' film with its combination of psychedelic pictures and music illustrates it perfectly.
