The end result?

Immediately before the First World War the two largest employment categories in Britain were "Agricultural Workers", closely followed by "Domestic Servants".

I don't see farming bouncing back as a source of employment, but I'd guess that over the next twenty years "Non Residential Domestic Help & Care Workers" will have overtaken "Retail" to become the big employment growth category of the 21st Century.

Back in those days , the people in the industries that you describe earned so little they did not consume much either , if we go back to low pay for millions( which seems to be the case that is happening right now ) who is going to buy the so called wonderful products that the industrialist's need the masses to buy to keep themselves rich.
