Britain didn’t have McCarthyism. Major industries were being nationalised, the welfare state was being created with the NHS, statutory sick pay, and unemployment benefits. Communism (in the true sense of the word) and socialism were generally acceptable political viewpoints.
Colonies were being given their independence. It was an optimistic time, with government by the people, for the people.
Not the neo-liberal capitalist hellscape dominating both “labour” and conservative parties we have now.
In 1940s socialist Labour Britain? No.
Especially as that’s not what the list was.
