  3. Certainly where I grew up in Scotland (an old mining town), most folk
    voted Labour because that's what their fathers had voted and their
    fathers and their fathers..... you get the picture. There was no
    thought put into what the policies actually were. Course this appears
    to have changed a little, as the MSP for the area appears to be SNP,
    but at a more local level, it's still staunchly Labour (and orange).

    Knowing your age [1], I doubt Labour existed much beyond your
    contemporaries' grandfathers' time.

    In a lot of Northern areas older generations voted labour because of
    memories of how the tories them or their parents in the 1930s, when their
    was high unemployment amongst mine workers.

    Certainly my maternal grandmother always refused to vote Conservative
    because 'they' had forced her parents to sell their family piano in order to
    claim unemployment benefit.

    I bet it was that Maggie Fatcher that did that. Hilda wasn't good
    enough for her, she had to steal our school milk to make whippy ice-
    cream for the toffs and stopped the working classes from having
    joanna's so they could here the chimes when Mr Whippy was coming
    round.

    And who was in charge when this "global recession" took place?
