At the start of the 1930’s was the financial crash, a lot of people were unemployed and had no home. That was followed by the wall street crash which was a big disaster. In the 30’s the north and south were divided south was rich and went everywhere in cars because they could afford them. But unfortunately the north were very poor and went in trains to most places. The start of WW2 also was in the 30’s and Hitler and the Nazi party was not going down without a fight.

In the 40’s Britain won the 2nd World War , later in that decade Britain were on another high because Queen Elizabeth married Prince Phillip but rationing still went on and people were sick of it. Slum houses were invented but they were really bad. Dull, smelly, small and disgusting. Also Winston Churchill was not elected the labour party was. In the 40’s fashion became important.

At the start of the 50’s Harold McMillan the Prime Minster told Britain that they have never had it so good, and he was right because in 1953 Queen Elizabeth had her coronation. For children the best thing was sweet rationing stopped! The Prime Minster in 1956 promised everyone that they would build 300,000 houses a YEAR!!!

In 1966 England won the World Cup with a 4-2 win over west Germany. But the biggest thing in the 60’s was that Neil Armstrong was the first man on the moon and that brought great joy to the world.

But a really sad thing about the 60’s was that Ruth Ellis got hung, but the good thing was after that hanging people in our country was banned. In the 60’s National Service ended so that meant no more short hair and you could wear what you wanted.

In the 1970’s the first Star Wars came out and was a huge hit. The first female Prime Minster in Britain was elected but the worst thing was that in most jobs you could only work three days a week so hardly anyone got paid much at all. There was also the new look the ‘Hippie’ look and it was a big hit.

Thank youThank you for watching
