The trouble is that ALL of the parties sound tired and out of ideas.
Remember Wilson (probably the cleverest PM we've ever had) with his invocation of the promise of "the scientific and technological revolution" and of the need for government to plan Britain's response to "the white heat of technological change".
The "traditional" working class was in decline and nationalisation outmoded and post war we were leaving behind austerity filmed in black and white and looking forward to modernity. Mini cars and mini dresses, swinging London and sex n drugs n rock n roll, exotic foreign food (spaghetti other than in can), exotic foreign holidays (Spain), garden cities iinstead of urban sprawl..
The same with Thatcher - move fast and break things - anyone can make it, smart kids in the city, loadsa money, crap jobs moving abroad, the unionised morlocks in dock and rail and mine no longer able to hold the rest of us to ransom.
Meanwhile the entire planet was excited that we've put a man on the moon without some prat saying that the money would have been better spent on 'doing something' about poverty.
Half a century of the average person living longer, being better educated, being healthier, having more 'stuff' and in the sure knowledge that the next generation would have things even better.
“Bliss it was in that dawn to be alive - But to be young was very heaven.”
I'd really love someone to lead a party (or even a local council!) who says such and such could be the future in ten years. Here's how the NHS could look and work, here's transport, here's communications etc and here's how we get there.
It's not difficult. Other bits of the world are doing it.
The future is with us - it's just badly distributed!
