Margaret Thatcher has been named the worst Prime Minister of the last 100 years, closely beating fellow Conservative David Cameron in a new survey of leading historical writers.

The Historical Writers’ Association (HWA) asked its members to give their views on the last 19 Prime Ministers, in a survey released to mark Theresa May’s 100th day in office on 22 October.

Baroness Thatcher, who died in 2013, came first with 24% of the vote, closely followed by Mr Cameron (22%) and Neville Chamberlain (17%).

Tony Blair took 11% to leave him in fourth spot, while Gordon Brown and Sir Edward Heath were tied for fifth place with 8%.

Any survey which puts Margaret Thatcher BEHIND Tony Blair, Neville Chamberlain, Gordon Brown, and the abhorrent Ted Heath, in a list of 'Greatest Prime Ministers', says far more about the personal prejudices of those surveyed, than it does about their rationality and acumen - in my opinion.
