Churchill's regime was not good and barely distinguishable from FDR or Hitler. Many wartime restrictions, such as rationing, would continue will into the 50s.
Yeah, because the country was bombed to shit after meddling into a war that no one was prepared for. You don't just, after the war, bounce back to pre-war standards. It takes time to rebuild things.
Government rationing removes any incentive for the market to produce the rationed goods. It's purely about fostering dependency as a means of control. Price controls have a 4000 year history of failure in materialist terms.
When there is no market, you can't expect it to produce anything. The usual capitalistic incentives only work when there is time for the market to react and re-organise. During war time there is no such time. If you let the free market dictate everything, the capitalists would've sided with Hitler because it would be more profitable and less costly to side with the more likely victor (and Hitler would've won if the rest of the developed world hadn't banded together to strike back). The US was already supplying Nazi Germany with steel and trucks and had absolutely no trouble in doing that because there was more money to be made in this war machine.

What are you even talking about?
The war was a good excuse for the fabian's to escalate their power. Churchill implemented the agenda of socialists and laid the foundations for the dissolution of the empire. He had to be bailed out financially prior to his asecension to power, which made him owned by progressives.
Made up nonsense. Churchill campaigned hard - even most people sympathetic to him say too hard - against socialism in 1945.
After giving the socialists everything they asked for, he campaigned against them and was removed from power for it.
