Question

what is one or two facts to describe post war conditions in Britain?

Answer 1

Conditions were grim. Rationing and conscription dragged on into the post war years, and the country suffered one of the worst winters on record in 1946-47.[7]

Wartime rationing continued, and was for the first time extended to bread in order to feed the German civilians in the British sector of occupied Germany.[8] During the war the government had banned ice cream and rationed sweets, such as chocolates and confections; sweets were rationed until 1954.[9] Most people grumbled, but for the poorest, rationing was beneficial, because their rationed diet was of greater nutritional value than their pre-war diet. Housewives organised to oppose the austerity.[10] The Conservatives saw their opening and rebuilt their fortunes by attacking socialism, austerity, rationing, and economic controls, and was back in power by 1951.[11]

There were some bright spots to cheer up the gloom. Morale was boosted by the marriage of Princess Elizabeth in 1947 and the Festival of Britain in 1951.[12] The 1948 Summer Olympics took place in London in 1948. Reconstruction had begun in the battered host city, but there was no funding for new facilities. All the venues for the Games were lent by private or public organisations with little expenditure for rebuilding allocated.[13]
