Object history

This badge is part of a campaign aimed to save I.L.E.A. (Inner London Education Authority) which, between the 1965 and 1990, was the local education authority for the City of London and the 12 Boroughs of London.

ILEA fought off multiple attempts to abolish it during the 1980s. This badge references the general election of 1983. ILEA was officially abolished in 1990.
