8. The War and After What does Corelli Barnett argue?
Why is this so shocking?
Liberal Social reform was shown to have not gone far enough, government controls including rationing in WW2 actually improved the diets of many of the working classes and meant they were getting more food.
During WW2 the decision was made to do something about the conditions in which people lived and Lord Beveridge was given the job of investigating what needed to be done.

9. The Beveridge Report, welfare state and NHS
Beveridge identified the five ‘Giant evils’:
Want- poverty,: people not having enough money for life’s basic needs (food, shelter, clothing, warmth) Solution- benefits to help people from ‘cradle to grave’: Child benefit, unemployment benefit, pensions
Disease- sickness and disease Solution- National Health Service providing health care that was free at the point of use
Ignorance- Lack of education Solution- Free primary and secondary education for all children
Squalor- poor living conditions Solution- building regulation, building of new high standard council houses, housing benefit
Idleness- Unemployment Solution- public work schemes and economic policies designed to ensure that as many people as possible were in work (full employment)
Why would the above improve the health of the British People?
Why did some people oppose the changes?
As health was so poor what happened when the NHS was set up?
