In 1989 members of The Style Council went under the name of 'King Truman' to release a single on Acid Jazz titled "Like A Gun". A greatest hits album, The Singular Adventures of The Style Council, was released internationally in 1989 it included the non-album single "Promised Land", which had reached No. 27 in the UK earlier that year. This led to their record label Polydor rejecting their final album ( Modernism: A New Decade), which was influenced by the house scene. However, Confessions of a Pop Group, released a year later, sold poorly. In 1986, the band released a live album, Home and Abroad, and, in 1987, The Cost of Loving was launched, followed later in the year by the non-album single "Wanted", which reached No. 20 in the UK Singles Chart. I think after a while that overshadowed the music a bit". He later said that this began to detract from the music: "We were involved with a lot of political things going on at that time. Weller was also instrumental in the formation of Red Wedge with Billy Bragg. The Style Council took a more overtly political approach than The Jam in their lyrics, with tracks such as "Walls Come Tumbling Down", "The Lodgers", and "Come To Milton Keynes" being deliberate attacks on ' middle England' and Thatcherite principles prevalent in the 1980s. In spite of the song's political content, it still picked up BBC Radio 1 airplay and was performed on Top of the Pops.

In December 1984, Weller put together a charity ensemble, the Council Collective, to make a record, "Soul Deep", to raise money for striking miners, and the family of David Wilkie. The song remains Weller's greatest success in the US (including his efforts in The Jam and as a solo artist), while the group reached the peak of its success in the UK with the 1985 album Our Favourite Shop. In 1984, the single "My Ever-Changing Moods", backed with the Hammond organ instrumental "Mick's Company", reached No. 29 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the US.

The move has created an 'icy' atmosphere within the Royal Family, according to one local media report, and has driven a wedge between a seemingly united family. The people love their Queen and Crown Prince Frederik (who is heir to the throne).' However, Prince Joachim, 53, the youngest of Margrethe's two sons, said his children Nikolai, 23, Felix, 20, Henrik, 13, and Athena, 10, had been 'harmed' by the news that they will have prince and princess removed from their titles, and will no longer be able to use His or Her Royal Highness. Kenth Madsen told FEMAIL: 'There has never been a public conflict between the Queen and Prince Joachim.' The reporter added: 'There has also been no evidence that the population is against the Queen's decision.
