Britain in the 1970s - a hell on earth?
Post Body

The general view we are given of the 1970s is that Britain was an economic basket case due to constant strikes, inflation, militant unions and inefficient industries. Supporters of Margaret Thatcher argued she saved Britain from decline. How valid is this view? Was Britian as bad as is portrayed? The links below question this view.
