Abstract
The historical development of the British Welfare State embodied a number of destructive faults which are now major impediments to reform. Devotees of state provision have a dogmatic antipathy to market forces and an ideological allegiance to state welfare as an instrument of egalitarian politics. There is also an active poverty lobby and a huge vested interest in the status quo among state employees. Wholesale denationalisation of the Welfare State apparatus remains imperative.
