A famous Quote by Harold Macmillan in the 1950s was ‘Things Have Never Been So Good’ the likely consequence was that the 1950s was a comfortable decade regardless of the hardship caused by the war. There was a need for people to get away from the dullness of the war years and were in need of a better standard of living. The unemployment was at a low, the standard of living was rising and the economy was booming. All restrictions made by the government about utility restrictions on industries were lifted in August 1952 and then a lot of consumer goods became available and you could purchase these goods on credit or higher purchase making it much easier for people with a lower income to afford the latest goods.
