Review of The Good Life

This program was one of several that articulated the "siege mentality" of the middle class under what was at the time a fairly left-wing Labour-party government (having won a general election after a nationwide strike by miners and power-station workers); the "class that gets out of the bath to pee" has always claimed that it is "up against the wall" when Labour is in power; usually because they can't find people willing to be domestic servants when union power means that factory jobs offer better pay!
