The Wapping Dispute was a major confrontation in the 1980s between print unions and Rupert Murdoch's News International as it sought to modernize operations, leading to the decline of union power in the UK. Sparked by technological advancements in the printing industry, the dispute highlighted broader shifts in labor relations and government policies under Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher. Its resolution marked a significant turning point in industrial practices, paving the way for increased operational efficiency at the cost of union influence.
