After watching this interesting documentary if left me asking, New Labour, was it worth it?


Was the country really in a bad way in 1997, what would have happened if the Tories had remained in power and the New labour revolution had never happened, would there have been a larger division between the poor and the wealthy or would the Tories have been forced to readjust their policies regarding wealth distribution and social opportunities to allow us to compete on a global platform.

So was it all just champagne socialism that never really needed to happen or did New Labour really change the country and world as GB once said for the better?
 
Apart from the illegal war, uni fee's, the start of the selling off of the NHS I will alway fondly remember new labour for flooding the employment market with EU nationals. Which led to lower wages and minimum wage.

Almost brings a tear to my eye
You forgot the gold sell off.
