In 1950 Heath was elected to Parliament from the Conservative Party, has passed all stages Party career. Has held positions of Minister of Labor (1959-1960), Lord Privy Seal (1960-1963) and Minister of Trade (1963-1964). After 1964 the Conservatives were defeated in elections in 1965 became the leader of the opposition. In 1970 became Prime Minister.

Like his Labor predecessor, Harold Wilson, Heath faced with the need, on the one hand, to control inflation, but on the other - to stimulate and modernize the industry. Hit lowered taxes and in 1971 signed an agreement on the conditions of entry into the UK from 1973 to the European Economic Community. In 1972, established a tight control over wage increases, but even this measure proved futile after the 1973 oil crisis.
