But how can I make Jeremy Thorpe as PM non-dystopic ;)


(Pls no kill Shifty I'm kidding. Please. Don't shoot my dog.)
To take it seriously, the National Unity program would have probably left 70s Britain far worse off than IoTL and led to NF gaining seats.

But if you give him Montgomeryshire in '55...

Yeah I agree, I've thought quite a bit about a world with a (Heath led) national unity government which suspends elections circa 1979 but I'm not really sure what to do with it. Maybe just a PM list showing how the 70s and 80s could have been even worse...

Probably get rid of Heath- he didn't want to win in 1974 and believed his presence was only harming the country, someone like Whitelaw might be able to make it work.
 
The bad list parody no one asked for. Enjoy. The conceit is that it's being written in 2050 or so,by an AH.com user in an Idiocracy-like world.

Ferraro's VPs are:
Mario Cuomo 1993-1997
Russ Feingold 1997-2001

Trump's are:
Dick Cheney 2005-2009
Olympia Snowe 2009-2013

I think the way of displaying it is a little odd, but for reference, this is how FDR's Presidency would look in a similar format:
1933-1945: Franklin Delano Roosevelt (Democratic)
1932: def. Herbert Hoover/Charles Curtis (Republican) (with John Nance Garner as VP)
1936: def. Alf Landon/Frank Knox (Republican), (with John Nance Garner as VP)
1940: def. Wendell Willkie/Charles L. McNary (Republican) (with Henry Wallace as VP)
1944: def. Thomas Dewey/John W. Bricker (Republican) (with Harry Truman as VP)

That just seems like a terrible way to do it.

So -- and it pains me to say it in some ways -- relatively speaking, a Utopia from the Poll Tax revolt on?

ETA: I may have to run over to Alternate Cabinets and post a Lib-Lab '92 government, it was my uni-age fantasy at the time...
 
Probably get rid of Heath- he didn't want to win in 1974 and believed his presence was only harming the country, someone like Whitelaw might be able to make it work.

Willie would be perfect including the descent into (more) drink that brings in someone truly scary. Plus @Cevolian could call it "Short Sharp Shock"...
