Was thinking about this one the other day. Suppose Britain had been able to hold on to some kind of "rump" Empire post WW2, which includes the African and Caribbean colonies, plus Malaya and maybe Ceylon. Perhaps the POD could be a victory at Suez? Anyhow, if butterflies remain limited, and Margaret Thatcher becomes Prime Minister of a country that was in as bad an economic shape as it was in OTL in the late 1970's, what would she have done with the Empire?
