Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher's triumphant return to the Grand Hotel in Brighton marks a poignant moment in history captured by Bill Rowntree. This powerful print takes us back to August 28th, 1986, when Thatcher and Norman Tebbit surprised the nation with their visit to the official reopening of the hotel, exactly 22 months after it was devastated by an IRA bomb during the Tory conference. The image encapsulates both resilience and determination as Thatcher stands tall amidst the remnants of destruction. The scars left behind serve as a reminder of the tragic loss that occurred within these walls - five lives tragically cut short. Yet here she is, defying fear and showcasing her unwavering commitment to rebuilding not just a physical structure but also a sense of unity for her party and country.
