Pluto

Born 1944 the post-war Labour govt. provided every school child with cod-liver oil and one third of a pint of milk.We were inoculated against measles,smallpox and dipthaeria. They were determined to avoid the weedy growth of children after WW1 who were plagued by malnutrition, stunted growth, rickets and polio. Financially the Americans screwed us for the last Bank of England gold which went by ship from Liverpool to New York in 1947. Financially we were at rock bottom. Again we make the romantic mistake of dreaming the Americans are our best friends. They think of themselves, always. America FIRST. Wake up, UK.
