Uk stockmarkets don't perform in isolation to the global economy,ie the colour of the UK Government is not the only factor involved,However the Tory philosophy,before the current leftish one,of believing in smaller Govt,less over regulation,free trade,lower rates of tax, has been good for company profitability which is by definition good for employees.Less unemployment helps everyone.Higher share prices are good for Pension funds.Not only the rich benefit.Also that philosophy allows gifted ,hard working entrepreneurs to become 'filthy rich' again benefitting the rest of us both financially and in showing an example us.You don't have to be well off to make money from the stockmarket.If you cant invest personally for whatever reason,your pension fund whether privately or company scheme is doing it for you
