[QUOTE="N.Yorks., post: 7434379, member: 46426"] It's really interesting thinking about the what drivers for change were back in the late '40's and what that stimulated out on the ground. I presume (as I'm no historian) that the post war period was a drive for greater self sufficiency as Hitlers U-boat campaign demonstrated how fragile we were as an island`? Then the population increased so, with a better standard of living and further industrial innovation and cheap food, drove wealth? Fast forward 60 years we have a huge population all hooked on cheap food and some desire to purchase the latest 'whatever' that drives the economy? Looks like we really got lost a bit..... but things change as we realise past miscalculations and unintended consequences? [/QUOTE]
