This is true. Government at the time told us a service Britain would make more money and be better off. Looking at all the millions of unemployed who would have followed there fathers into trades makes me sad. It ruined whole community's. Its a shame but it won't ever change now I expect. Look at the Victorian builders of say like the pumping stations (saw it on a documentary) they had some money left over after building it so they decorated the entire inside. I'm babbling now but I know what I'm trying to say lol! :-(
