I did explain that Baz... Ted Heath was in power in the first half of the seventies ..it was 1973 and again in 78/79.
But the point that I was making was that it started in 1970.... with power cuts due to work to rule .....and I think ....although I might be wrong the It was Harold Wilson then.....the thing is it didn't matter which party was in power ....and again from memory there were two Labour PMs and two Conservative ....it was the unions and hardcore Left that caused the problems
But things have changed now.......this is years on from that and to be fair go with what is happening now, rather than what happened then
And you don't think this manifesto is retrograde ?? It's not me that's going backwards
