3- The UK had to borrow money from the US to pay for the war. This was not paid finally back until recently.

4- Food and clothing was rationed for many years. It was not until 1948 that the British could buy sweets (candy) again.

5- No cars were built between 1940 and 1950 so everybody had to drive round in old bangers for years.

Women started to rebell against the rights of men.

However woman got their rights they need E.G. woman were not allowed to vote.Even if a man spend the whole day in bar drinking and who a woman who spent the whole day hard working.The man who is lazy and doing nothing is allowed to vote but the hard working woman is not allowed to vote.

On my side of opinion women had more choices and life after the war.This meant the women wouldn't be house property anymore.
