Callaghan, James. Speech at a Labour Party Conference. Labour Party Conference. 28 Sept. 1976, Blackpool, England, UK.

There are times, perhaps once every thirty years, when there is a sea-change in politics. It then does not matter what you say or what you do. There is a shift in what the public wants and what it approves of. I suspect there is now such a sea-change-and it is for Mrs. Thatcher.
