The one miner I know tells me it was Thatcher who destroyed the mining industry in order to destroy the unions.

I was there in solidarity with the miners on the picket line and it's a very complex story but Maggie did set out to destroy the unions.
The police acted like absolute pigs. Whilst they have to uphold the law, why they set about punching working men and wpmen is a mystery as they were all basically on the same side.
makes you wonder what sort of psychologically disturbed people they allow to join the Met. 
as for Scargill's court case, it's a simple matter of a trust breaching a contract. Nothing to do with uniuon matters. |

Innocent Accused |
'Mr Scargill a further £1,000 in damages because he was denied membership of the NUM for 10 months during the dispute.'
This is getting silly! |

you take very wide jumps by comparing union leaders with communist leaders etc yet do not include capitalist leaders whose lifestyle outstrip any of the others.
They work for and earn their living, veritas - not expect it delivered to them.
but your belief in the free market is obviously limited...OK for some, corporations etc to manipualte conditions but not others..ie the workers. Odd.
Not at all ... most union members manipulate themselves OUT of a job (ask the miners) ! |

and if that was true why would it bother you ?
Isn't it a simple fact, veritas (as exemplified by the Scargill case) that while all these Union leaders - exactly like all Communist leaders - all espose "we are all brothers" but they travel in luxury and live in nice houses while the "other brothers" continue to live in squalor ?

Also doing the usual..lunping everyone in as a group that all act as a co-ordinated group..(scrounging single mums etc)
