===Criticism===
By 1987, after Thatcher's successful third re-election, criticism of Thatcherism increased.{{sfn|Campbell|2011|p=529}} At the time, Thatcher claimed it was necessary to tackle the "culture of dependency" by government intervention to stop socialised welfare.{{sfn|Campbell|2011|p=529}} In 1988, she caused controversy when she made the remarks, "You do not blame society. Society is not anyone. You are personally responsible" and, "Don't blame society – that's no one."{{sfn|Campbell|2011|p=531}} These comments attracted significant criticism, including from other conservatives due to their belief in individual and collective responsibility.{{sfn|Campbell|2011|p=532}} In 1988, Thatcher told the party conference that her third term was to be about 'social affairs'. During her last three years in power, she attempted to reform socialised welfare, differing from her earlier stated goal of "rolling back the state".{{sfn|Campbell|2011|p=534}}
