The main purpose of the work is to analyze the most important aspects of post war development in Great Britain. My attention will be focused primarily on measures taken by the Labour government, which for the first time in history came to power. In second part I will describe the building of the welfare state from the World War II until the end of 80's of the 20th century, when Margaret Thatcher was elected to be the prime minister. In the third part of the work I will analyze her impact on the economic conversion of Great Britain from Keynesianism to Monetarist doctrine of free market forces and responsibility of each individual for his / her fate. The government of Margaret Thatcher has set a new direction, which becomes the inspiration for many other politicians around the world. In the end of the work, I will describe the circumstances which led to the resignation of the first female prime minister in the history of Great Britain.

The old tories were the most enduring group within the British Conservative parliamentary party between the two world wars: by taste, habit and convictions, independents in parliamentary traditions, yet loyal Conservatives in politics. They led the successful Conservative revolt against the coalition with Lloyd-George. In 1930 they tried to overthrow Stanley Baldwin, and opposed his disarmament policy and Imperial policy, especially in India, together with Winston Churchill. They pressed for Imperial consolidation through tariffs and Imperial Preference, wished to rearm Britain early, support France and the 'Stresa Front' to contain Germany, and exclude Russia from Europe. Events led these 'die-hard' perennial rebels to become the chief defenders of Neville Chamberlain's foreign policy as being closest to their own, though unfortunately late. Always independent, they forbade colonial cessions to Hitler, opposed alliance with Russia in 1939, supported total war against nazi Germany, and had an important and ironic part in Chamberlain's fall.
