About Ridley Plan

The Ridley Plan was a 1977 report on the nationalised industries in the United Kingdom produced in the aftermath of Edward Heath government's being brought down by the 1973–74 coal strike. The Ridley Plan was drawn up by the right-wing Conservative MP Nicholas Ridley, a founding member of the Selsdon Group. In the report he proposed how the next Conservative government could fight, and defeat, a major strike in a nationalised industry. In Ridley's view, trade union power in the UK was negatively interfering with market forces, causing inflation, and therefore had to be checked to restore the "profitability" of the UK. He and others also saw it necessary to check union power in the aftermath of the fall of the Heath government.
