(from memory) Margaret Thatcher became an MP in 1959 and was a member of the Heath govt. of 1970-4. In 1970 (I think) she did stop free milk for children but I remember having it in 1972 in primary 1 but that was in Scotland. I don't know about elsewhere. Perhaps the outcry provoked a U-turn...apparently Heath was famous for them. I could've google all this but this is what I remember and what I've picked up in the news coverage.
