*Dr Nick voice* Hi, everybody!
Currently I am participating in a political simulation which takes place in 1993 after the fall of a Marxist regime in the UK, and which is now deciding upon a new government.
I have come to ask the opinions of the board on the question of a Great Britain which turns into a socialist/communist republic. Is there a way in which Britain could turn into such a state after WWII?
I have suggested a scenario in which Attlee's policies remain popular into the 50s, in which Labour gradually goes more left-wing and transforms Britain into the BPR, with the Conservatives go Thatcherite earlier and consign themselves into oblivion. Unfortunately, I'm not at all as well-versed in the electoral politics of Britain between 1945 and 1972 outside of Northern Ireland and a little Churchill, so I don't know if even that idea is possible.
I'm sure this idea has come up before, however it would help us greatly in the simulation if some ideas could be had on such an idea as Britain going all the way with socialism/communism.
