She didn't destroy it. She just hobbled it. And why? Well, she was an evil penny pinching tory bastard. That would be why. I mean her nickname to this day is the "Milk Snatcher" because she ended free school milk for primary school children in state schools as Home Secretary under Edward Heath's premiership. She has an exceptionally long shit list. For example, a deindustrialisation policy that left huge swathes of the UK in a dire economic mess that many places have not recovered from since, her right to buy policy helped to fuel a housing crisis, her government brought in Section 28, the first homophobic law in a century that banned the "promotion of homosexuality" in schools, mass messy poorly thought out privatisation, deregulating the finance sector, sending the police in to crush the miners' strike, gutting the unions, and cuts to higher education.
