Over a decade before Margaret Thatcher swept to power in May 1979, another woman was running Britain from 10 Downing Street: Marcia Williams, private and political secretary to Harold Wilson. Having worked for Wilson since 1956, Williams became the Prime Minister’s trusted adviser and confidante forming, as the historian Ben Pimlott once described it, ‘the most famous and mysterious partnership in modern political history’.
To mark the publication of Marcia Williams: The Life and Times of Baroness Falkender by @BitebackPublishing, the @MileEndInstitute_QMUL and Tides of History welcomed her biographer, Linda McDougall, to @QMUL@QMUL, where Marcia Field (as she then was) studied History from 1951 to 1954 and was Secretary of the Labour Society.
Linda McDougall is a leading journalist, television producer and author of several books on women in politics. In addition to charting Williams’ rise through the Labour Party, Linda examined the assumptions and accusations that were a constant accompaniment to her political career and charted her influence on British politics and policy.
