Talking History Episode 1: The Tax That Toppled the Iron Lady

The Iron Lady's Last Stand: The Poll Tax and the End of an Era

Welcome to Talking History, a new series where we dive deep into the past with the people who love it most! In our very first episode, I share my personal journey into the world of history. I'll be talking about why I'm so fascinated by one of the most polarizing figures of the 20th century, Margaret Thatcher.

We'll be exploring my current research on the poll tax, a policy that sparked nationwide protests and ultimately played a major role in her downfall. What was the poll tax, really? Why did it ignite such a firestorm? And what lessons can we learn from this pivotal moment in British history?

Join me as I discuss the research process, the untold stories, and the historical ripples that are still felt today. I'll also be sharing a sneak peek into my future research, so be sure to stick around!

This is more than just a history lesson; it's a conversation. So like, subscribe, and let me know in the comments what historical figures or events you'd love to see me cover next!
