Cool Britannia was a name for the period of increased pride in the culture of the United Kingdom in the mid-to-late 1990s, inspired by Swinging London from 1960s pop culture. This loosely coincided with the latter years of John Major's Conservative government and the 1997 United Kingdom general election, which Tony Blair's New Labour won in a landslide.
