Actually no Howard. The left is a broad group that includes the LibDems/Labour and others who believe in big government solutions and in that even some Conservatives can be included. I refer to Frederich Hayek's famous dedication in his great book, The Road to Serfdom, 'To The Socialists of All Parties'.
GaryC - this is not my list and, yes - I did set a challenge in which your nomination falls very short of the mark.
The NHS was devised by a Liberal, Beveridge and while Atlee implemented it, the system was ill-conceived and deeply flawed, did not meet its expectations and provides, by international standards, second rate healthcare. The Atlee government set the basis for the decline of much of British industry with its nationalisation and left office, kicked out in a financial crisis leading to 13 years of Conservative power. Sadly those were not the best 13 years for failing to reverse Atlee's economic vandalism.
