Excerpt:
The "Winter of Discontent" is an expression, popularised by the British media , which refers to the winter of 1978–1979 in the United Kingdom, during which there were widespread strikes by local authority trade unions demanding larger pay rises for their members, because the government of
James Callaghan sought to hold a pay freeze to control inflation. The weather turned very cold in the early months of 1979 with blizzards and deep snow, and it became the coldest since 1962-63, which added to people's misery.[1]
The strikes were a result of the Labour government's attempt to control inflation by imposing rules on the public sector that pay rises be kept below 5%, as an example to the private sector. However, employers conducted their negotiations within mutually agreed limits with their employees' unions.[2] While the strikes were largely over by February 1979, the government's inability to contain the strikes earlier helped lead to Margaret Thatcher's Conservative victory in the 1979 general election and legislation to restrict unions. Public sector employee strike actions included an unofficial strike by gravediggers working in Liverpool and Tameside, and strikes by refuse collectors. Additionally, NHS ancillary workers formed picket lines to blockade hospital entrances with the result that many hospitals were reduced to taking emergency patients only.
The phrase "Winter of Discontent" is from the opening line of William Shakespeare's Richard III: "Now is the Winter of our Discontent / Made glorious summer by this sun of York...", and was applied to the events of the winter by the then editor of The Sun, Larry Lamb, in an editorial.[3][4]

While Bilderberger Ted Heath was taking the UK into the EEC, he was supported by another Victor Rothschild associate, the Labour leader and three times Prime Minister, Harold Wilson, a fellow Bilderberger. Further Labour Party support came from leading figures like the Bilderbergers - James Callaghan, who would later be Prime Minister; Denis Healey, who attended the first Bilderberg meeting in 1954 and a stream of those that followed; and Roy Jenkins, who would later be head of the European Commission.
