80 years before ‘97 was 1917 — I think you’re being disingenuous here.
I wasn't clear on this so I'll take it on the chin but I meant anyone now under 80 would not have seen those kinds of reforms. Basically unless you were alive in 1946 for the Attlee NHS building, the next best thing you'd have seen was Blair in 1997 for expanding and strengthening the welfare state.
I think a lot of people - not you - use the word 'neoliberal' to mean 'things I don't like'.
