So what if the Labour Party never becomes a major party after the Great War? I was thinking that they could be like todays Lib Dems with never more than 100 seats. What do you think?
I was meaning more along the lines of what would become of the NHS? would it ever be introduced?We most certainly wouldnt have had the Labour rule 1997-2010, Which i guess says goodbye to Tony Blair and Gordon Brown.
I don't think we'd have the NHS. We might have some form of universal healthcare based upon compulsory health insurance, but as to whether it would be better or worse than the current system in terms of cost and quality, I couldn't possibly say.I think the NHS would be created, but not recive much funding at all really, making it ineffective.

Check out the 'people from alternate universes' thread that does the rounds around here every few days. The PoD appears to be that butterflies from McKinley surviving his assassination led to Teddy Roosevelt being president during WWI, which led to Pershing, Foch and Haig driving to Berlin in 1919 rather than accepting an armistice, which led to a leftist revolution in Germany that led to purges, massacres and the total discrediting of Socialism in the West (far more so than Russia IOTL). Consequently Labour has never got off the ground, and was even banned as a party between the 1920s and the end of *WWII.
