Did the Brits actually use the phrase consistently in the period of time between the actual invasion/operation in Hungary, and the invention of twitter? Because it used to be a term that was only used by very few people, prior to 2015, maybe in part because of the left's general weakness in those times.

No idea, but someone must have used it since it exists.
