"Worker safety is paramount." And they encouraged smoking. They had tea ladies delivering food/drink to the workers at their machines - that's a big non-no. At places I worked, any machinist caught eating or drinking was called out, because the oil etc on their hands can be injested, as can bits of metal. And the food/drink can get on the job.

@ypaulbrown : You should read some books yourself - including official war-time reports that have now been declassified. Britain made a maximum effort in terms of commitment of forces, putting factories to work on military equipment etc. But its war effort was ill-conceived and achieved very little. WW2 was won by the efforts of the USA and the USSR - both deployed far more troops and equipment, and both directed their efforts to what actually mattered.

No crumpets. Britain rationed its food.

@Spookieham : Presumably you are referring to the fact that the USA was not involved militarily until December 1941. The fact is, until then the War was not a World War and had nothing to do with the USA, no more than for any other neutral on non-involved country. Britain had declared war on Germany in 1939, which was a bit like an arrogant kid in the schoolyard giving cheek to the school bully, who of course said "Want to have a go, do you? Right ho then." The other kids in the yard did not get involved, which is as it should be. Due to the pre-existing Tripartite Pact between Germany, Italy, and Japan, when Japan bombed Pearl Harbour in December 1941, that made the USA at war with all three by default. To clear the air and provide their soldier with a legal basis, the USA and Germany promptly declared war on each other simultaneously.
