Didn't Labor close more mines than Thatcher?

Arthur Scargill is now 81 and destined to live a long life because I am 83 and although my walking has slowed me down I remain steadfast in living a long life so too many men our age born during the late 1930s.

The sad fact about mining is it's not renewable when the coal is gone it's gone and it dont grow back. Unlike farming were you can keep growing crops for eternity.

@MrDavey2010 3 года назад

Scargill was unintentionally complicit in getting mines closed down. He danced to Thatcher’s tune and ran out of dance floor.

Some of his points are valid, some not so.

To all those who accuse scargill of being too authoritarian in his approach; I say that he was organising a major industrial dispute mandated by his members, not a fucking luncheon!

@rogermoore5761

Ageee with you ricky downing but if I recall correctly he didnt follow the proper NUM procedure on the votng and taking strike action. That was his achilles heel .There was also the question of missing money that Libya contributed to the Miners Fund.

Look at any interview from them days with Arthur and you can see the media hate.

@uptoapoint7157

The production cost of domestic British coal was 3X the cost of imported coal. It set the British consumer against the power of the unions.

Is he still squatting in the unions London flat.

Thank God for the likes of Andrew Neil that don’t allow the interviewee to waffle on and not go anywhere near addressing the question.

@melgrant7404 5 лет назад

Like him or not he was a great speaker.

Where did the nylon hair come from? Is it natural?

He started of a little man with a big union, ended up a big man with a little union.

Arthur and I go back to the early 1940's when families relied on coal for heating their homes but these coal is not necessary or it is not necessary to work underground.
