The Winter of Discontent, east London circa February / March 1979. Woman walks past rubbish piled beneath an advertisement for Guinness saying ?There's a lot of it about', due to Refuse Collectors being on strike during to the national strikes called the Winter of Discontent in 1979. The strikes brought down the Labour Government of Prime Minister James Callaghan and allowed Margaret Thatcher to win her first victory as Conservative Prime Minister. The Winter of Discontent was a period during the winter of 1978?79 in the United Kingdom characterised by widespread strikes by private, and later public, sector trade unions demanding pay rises greater than the limits Prime Minister James Callaghan and his Labour Party government had been imposing, against Trades Union Congress (TUC) opposition, to control inflation. Some of these industrial disputes caused great public inconvenience, exacerbated by the coldest winter for 16 years, in which severe storms isolated many remote areas of the country. ?
