4. Eric Westman, A British Soldier in WW2
Never in history has there been such a conquest of women by men as was won by the Americans in Britain in World War Two. They had everything: money in particular, glamour, boldness, cigarettes, chocolates, nylons, jeeps and genitalia. The yanks were sex mad and countless British women who had virtually no experience in this line were completely bowled off their feet.

5. Source 1
Bearing gifts of extra rations, Coca Cola and nylon stockings it is no wonder that American GIs were popular house guests among British families during the Second World War. With British soldiers away in Europe, war-hit families were issued with an urgent plea to invite their US colleagues to share their Christmas celebrations. Faced with the prospect of their guests bringing extra food with them, families jumped at the chance to welcome the Americans into their homes, with some 50 invitations being offered for every GI, or Government Issue.

6. Immigration and Racial Tension

7. Shazia Mirza (Asian Comedian) The Guardian, Monday 11 June 2012
All my parents' relatives came here with nothing, with nowhere to live, let alone an £18,600 salary. Today most of them are millionaire businessmen in Birmingham and have contributed hugely to the economy by supplying kebabs to drunken people in the city centre on a Saturday night.
Everyone knows someone who is not just a doctor but an "Asian doctor". My accountant is Pakistani, my doctor Sri Lankan, my mechanic Jamaican and my dentist Indian. I can't live without any of them and none of them would have been allowed in under May's new rule. The most important man in my life is Mr Patel, who owns my corner shop. He's open all hours and never judges me when I walk in at 2pm in my pyjamas looking for milk and biscuits

9. Role of Women in Society

10. SOURCE 1
“It seemed clear that emancipation had failed; the number of women in parliament had settled at a low level; the number of professional women had stabilised as a tiny minority; the pattern of female employment had emerged as underpaid, menial and supportive. The cage door had been opened and the canary had refused to fly out. The conclusion was that the cage door ought never to have been opened because the canaries are made for captivity; the suggestion of an alternative had only confused and saddened them.”
The feminist Germaine Greer writing about the women's movement before 1970

In fact most of the reports of violence were wild exaggerated. Most of the teenagers at Clacton had come not to fight but to hang around, vaguely hoping they might meet some girls, and they were bored and aimless rather than crazed with bloodlust.
