So it turns out that you're historically illiterate as well.

Democrats held the WH for 32/48 years during that period and Congress for 44/48 .

I was specifically referring to this:

Given that the Conservatives suffered a crushing defeat at the 1945 election and consequentially accepted most of the agenda of the Attlee government in order to remain a viable party of government, it is highly dubious to think about the long postwar period as one of Conservative dominance and using it to link together two actual periods of Conservative dominance (the interwar period and the Thatcher/Major years) is ridiculous given how long it lasted. If we look at all the General Elections between 1945 and 1979 (inclusive on both ends) we find that Labour won five, the Tories won five and one was essentially a 'winning draw' for Labour. No party dominated during the long postwar period: it was a time of intense electoral and political competition. It isn't even possible to understand a lot of government policies - especially the less intelligent ones - without reference to this fact.

Tories has a majority of seats for a 14 year period, 13 year period and 18 year period

Labor longest run was 6 years

And during that period Labour held a majority of seats or even a plurality for only a total of 17 years out  of an 66 year period .

Except that it isn't a period that anyone other than you would regard as existing! At its heart is a period of thirty four years in which no party was dominant! You can't just tack the interwar, postwar and Thatcher/Major periods together and argue that they form one period distinct from anything before or after but unified in themselves without making a bloody good case for it. You're making a fool of yourself.

As I said earlier the Tories interwar dominance was a rather strange hybrid- they were a national government from 1931-1935, and then again from 1940-1945. These were not years of Tory dominance.  

The Tories won 470 seats in 1931 and 386 seats in 1935. The only reason there was a national government during this period was because the Tories chose to form one.

Are you familiar with the circumstances of the 1931 political crisis at all?
