- <p> Margaret Thatcher, Prime Minister ad infinitum, quit? Not
- yet, but maybe sooner than some dared hope. Last week Thatcher
- announced that she would not stand for a fifth consecutive term
- in office. She told the London weekly Sunday Correspondent she
- would lead the Conservative Party into the next election,
- likely to be held in 1991, but after that there "will be plenty
- of people who can take over."
- </p>
- <p> Thatcher plainly wanted to stop speculation that she might
- resign in the wake of the resignation of Chancellor of the
- Exchequer Nigel Lawson.
