Lord Young says that we have never had it so good , just as Harold Macmillan said the same in 1957 , and the latter was able to say it thanks to the boom in the post-war global economy .

The word "global" seems to have disappeared from the vocabulary of many of our politicians .
All the good is due to them , and all the bad is due to their opponents .
The fact that there is a world outside of themselves is conveniently forgotten .
