The way people were moved from horrid asylums to eventual homes that are catered to their individual illness. Possibly forced upon a few too many people that had too many troubles in the community but an overall good thing nonetheless. I've overseen the moving out a person from an asylum to a home and have heard firsthand stories from others, they were not a nice place to be. No idea if Thatcher had owt to do with any of this and I know care has improved a lot of late and still has lots wrong with it.
