 | | Thatcher also continued the policy of "Ulsterisation" of the previous Labour government and its Secretary of State for Northern Ireland, Roy Mason, believing that the unionists of Ulster should be at the forefront in combatting Irish republicanism. | | | She was given early promotion to the front bench as Parliamentary Secretary at the Ministry of Pensions and National Insurance in September 1961, keeping the post until the Conservatives lost power in the 1964 election. | | | On 22 November, at just after 9.30 am, Mrs Thatcher announced to her cabinet that she would not be a candidate in the second ballot, thereby bringing her term of office to an end. |

| | Geoffrey Howe: Information From Answers.com |
| | He was Margaret Thatcher 's longest standing Cabinet minister, serving as Chancellor of the Exchequer, Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs and Leader of the House of Commons, but resigned on November 1, 1990, a move that is widely thought to have hastened Thatcher's own downfall three weeks later. | | | In July 1989 John Major replaced him as Foreign Secretary, and he became Leader of the House of Commons, Lord President of the Council and Deputy Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. | | | Despite the title of Deputy Prime Minister this was generally seen as a demotion, especially after Thatcher's Press Secretary Bernard Ingham briefed the press to explain that "Deputy Prime Minister" did not imply Howe would be called on to form a government if Thatcher were run over by a bus. |
