Even sillier than you usually manage.

and made their voices felt and eventually succeeded in unseating Labour,

Political reaction

In the late 1940s the Conservative Party exploited and incited growing
public anger at rationing, scarcity, controls, austerity and government
bureaucracy.

Irrelevant to your stupid claim about MIDDLE CLASS HOUSEWIVES
who wouldn’t have been voting Labour, stupid.

They used the dissatisfaction with the socialistic and egalitarian
policies of the Labour Party to rally middle-class supporters and build a
political comeback that won the 1951 general election.

Even sillier than usual. Those wouldn’t
have voted Labour prior to that election.

Their appeal was especially effective to housewives, who faced more
difficult shopping
conditions after the war than during it.[38]

Yes, but not MIDDLE CLASS HOUSEWIVES who
wouldn’t have voted Labour before that election.

The British Housewives' League is a right-wing, non-party group
that seeks to act as the voice of the British housewife, providing
advice and encouraging active participation in society.

The League was founded by Irene May Lovelock,[2] née Northover-Smith
(1896-1974), who became its first chairman.

Post War 1946 Bread Rationing & Nationalisation
At its peak the League claimed over 100,000 members,and their
collective voice was felt in many rallies against post war bread
rationing. After six long years, this frustration with austerity
and state control became a very political issue,particularly among women
who, fed up with rationing, longed for some purchasing power and freedom
of choice. Meat, bacon, butter, sugar, eggs, tea, cheese, milk, sweets,
clothes, petrol were all still restricted.

But the MIDDLE CLASS HOUSEWIVES who were part of that
group wouldn’t have voted Labour before that election and
so it can't have been them that got the Torys elected.

It was this fallout with the Labour (Attlee) Government that led to
political change, since many women turned to the Conservative party.

Yes, but not the MIDDLE CLASS HOUSEWIVES who would never
have voted Labour so soon after Churchill had so successfully
got the yanks to bail out Britain in wartime, yet again.

Their subsequent election victory in 1951 became for many a statement
of discontent with Labour. As one woman expressed it, ‘the last election
was lost mainly in the queue at the butcher’s or the grocer’s’[9]

Yes, that is likely quite accurate, but it wasn’t MIDDLE CLASS
HOUSEWIVES that changed who they voted for, because they
would never have voted Labour at all.

Labour didn’t lose because of post war rationing

See above

There was a lot more involved in that particular election
than just rationing. Your own citations show that it was
much more about how Callahan had ****ed up the detail
of when the election was called and that claim is supported
by the polls which showed that they could have won if he
had called the election at the time he should have.

and middle class housewives didn’t vote Labour before that anyway.

No they didn't. They didn't vote at all.

BULL****.

none of the rest of your desperate attempt to bull****
your way out of your predicament worth bothering with,
all flushed where it belongs
