I'm sure that, even during the war, British morals remained impeccable!

Actually, and not surprisingly, you will find that morals in the
UKofGB&NI deteroriated badly during the war.

In Ipswich in 1943, an increasing number of complaints were received
about air raid shelters being used for €œimmoral purposes".

And, where still accessible, they probably also continued to be used for
immoral purposes for a long time after the war. And pillboxes.
