The great chasm; Labour supporters tend to back Attlee, Tories often go for Thatcher.

I as usual will go for Macmillan 1st with Thatcher 2nd

But choosing him as greatest British post-war PM is a boring thing to do. (If you're on the left, that is.)

A less boring, and indeed interesting thing to do is to give reasons for Wilson. Attlee's administration carried through many proposals drafted by bored civil servants during the war. Wilson was more innovative.
