After the resignation of Margaret Thatcher, Prime Minister John Major was swept into power in 1990, leading Britian through the Gulf War and the collapse of the Soviet Union. The Major premiership is now challanged by a reinvigorated Labour, and with a recession in full swing, many analysts predict that Neil Kinnock’s Labour will secure a majority in the upcoming election. Other parties are also seeking to take advantage of Major’s weak position, most notably the newly formed Liberal Democrats, successors to the now dead Liberal Party, seeking to present a new alternative to the 2 party system. Also in the race is the SNP under Alex Salmond, having slowly been picking up momentum throughout the entire 20th century, many Scottish nationalists hope that by taking advantage of the 1992 recession, the SNP can finally achieve a major electoral breakthrough. Can John Major defy the polls and a weak economy, campaigning as a popular war time leader, and re-establish tory rule for another decade, or will the British people have enough of Thacherite conservatism, bringing Labour and Neil Kinnock to power. You decide!
