If you don't like being called a scab, then don't become one.

Hatfield colliery was in Stainforth not hatfield

Putin has outlawed the other democratic parties and passed laws preventing people from going on strike in Russia. Does that make strikes and protests against his regime, technically illegal yes, but not morally wrong. There are different types of progress. The boffins at the NBC were working on carbon capture. Maybe if their work had not been stopped by the closure of the coal industry, maybe China's new coal powered stations would be fitted with technology that would have reversed climate change. There are many what 'ifs' but you can not change the fact that 80% of Nottinghamshire Miners betrayed not only the coal mining community but future generations within their own communities . That mark of Cain will be on their souls when they are judged by God and sent to the fiery pits of hell. They betrayed their fellow Miners for 40 pieces of silver .... which side are you on lad? Good or Evil?

I hope I never come across Phil rule, what a pos

Is there anything that could of saved the British coal industry? Was ideology placed above logic? I wish the industry had survived but is it fair to take money out of other people’s pockets to subsidise pits that don’t make money regardless of the fact that the communities were gonna cost taxpayers either way? I do believe big business took control of the government a long time ago and have sold the country out but I don’t think socialism was ever the solution. Just my opinion tho

Greatorex was vermin🐀

Scargill began a fight he could not win, and in the process destroyed the NUM.

If only they'd had a Palestinian flag.

Scargill destroyed the coal industry by starting a fight he could not win.

stunning video

Scabs

Pity south Wales miners weren't welcome at Yorkshire mines when Welsh mines were closed ? What was it they were told Yorkshire mines for Yorkshire miners ! Unity my arse

National ballot was an excuse / just like the national ballot on the area incentive scheme ??

Scabs

I walked past Markham Main every day on my way to school. It's no wonder that a bitter hatred of the police in the village was still there for years after.

Only good thing was the one road in and out , they had to come over the crossings . Someone on a bike would come down the road yelling " they'r coming " . Used to sit on top of the tip on the motorbike watching to see iff the plod came down from Wadwoth to come in behind the lines . Iff they came onto the tip we would ride off a little and stop and wait till they were almost at us then ride off some more to keep them occupied lol . Hard times , spent the winter's with my dad digging the dumped steam coal out of the tip side to keep the fire on . Brother got us some 1x1 steel from Crompton Parkinsons and we made a trailer to pull behind a Mobylette to haul 3 or 4 little bags back home at a time . Neighbours mam worked at Carnel's motorbike shop and we ended up fitting a bench drill with a 6" saw blade to the kitchen table to make a saw bench to cut the Japanese redwood 2x2 bike crate frames up for fire wood so we were better off than most . We kept the fire burning even iff it meant burning old shoes .

9th March 2024 'The pit wheels may have stopped turning, buy the coal embers are still burning. Deep in the hearts of South Yorkshire.' Will you march in solidarity with the Hatfield Miners? Miners' Strike 40th anniversary: Arthur Scargill, 86, to lead Doncaster commemoration Veteran trade unionist Arthur Scargill will lead a parade to mark the 40th anniversary of the Miners’ Strike in Doncaster. David Douglass, the former secretary of Hatfield Main NUM branch, has helped to organise the event, which will see a parade along Broadway in Dunscroft arriving at the Hatfield Colliery headgear where Hatfield Colliery Band will perform. There will then be a rally at the nearby Pit Club including performances and speeches from Mr Scargill, Hatfield Branch spokesman Harry Harle, pit poet Eddie Pickard and singer Joe Solo, followed by an open folk music session.

Kinnock not fit to wipe scargills boots

I remember it well in Kent, the village was full of blacklisted (1926) miners from Wales, Scotland, Durham and very isolated in the garden of England . In material terms it was rough, soup kitchens, living off Serbian bean soup and cold houses but the community pulled together, stayed loyal and we had a purpose. The destruction of those communities, the unions and the left in general hasn't made this a good place to live in the subsequent years.

Forty years on billions spent to import coal for the power stations when pit's used to supply them from ten miles down the road 100 thousand miners tax and national insurance the government didn't get and up to half a million jobs lost with the surrounding industries connected to the mining industry one of the most destructive things a government has ever done too it's people a clean burning coal power station was available but the government stopped it just to destroy the British coal industry

James you wasting everyone's time. I'm looking to record tge experiences of the people involved. You've exercised your freedom of speech. Please don't post anymore or I will delete all your threads :-)

I wasnt there and it must have been horrendous! But allowing children to be subject to that amount of abuse is disgraceful, getting children to join in aswell! Throwing bricks through peoples windows! Not caring who got hurt!! Spitting in peoples faces! They went back to provide for their kids! ...awful to hear kids shouting abuse! Poor things cant possibly get it

Dividend well its 2024 and the wealthy have never had it so good and the poor are getting poorer by the day I know people that never put heating on and are using food banks yet ski resorts and luxury goods sales are booming ......what a country9

and were are the scabs now most were smack heads or piss artists and there leader in the nick once a scab always a scab

I have that photo but it's copyrighted

It wouldbe worth showing the photos of the moments before the police attack. All the pickets were sat on the ground, no provocations at all.

All the violence was perpetrated by the Police, people reacted to the attack as anyone would.

I’ll never cross a picket 🪧 line.

We felt that we had let Tony and the others down, we didn't want to go back without the sacked lads .

Notts miners was scabs but in the end it came back to haunt them for working through the strike

They was scabs sold the rest of us down the road

And it back fired in the end on all the notts miners

hello i am not a native english speaker. it is difficult for me to understand what people say in this video and the second part. could you please consider adding captions? thanks in advance, POWER TO THE WORKINGMEN!

Just noticed a Alan Cummings from easington num was wondering if you have any footage of Murton colliery.

Scargill didn’t give a fuck about the miners, he knew a national ballot would vote not to strike so he used it as a one man crusade against the government. Where is he now ? He took the NUM to court to keep his union funded London flat, no support for the pension scheme, the man’s a pure twat

If you scabbed your as much to blame as Thatcher for destroying the coal industry and all the communities and lives of the people involved

My grandads uncles and distant cousins were all miners back in the day even thow i was not alive during the strike I still find it a interesting subject I all was wonder what it would be like if the pits were still open the miners and pit officials all said soon as the pits shut the towns and villages would be fluded with crime unemployment and drugs the heart and soul of our community's gone if only the pits were still open it would have turned boys into men and opportunities would of still been about all i can say is power to the people long live the miners.

A lad I knew was murdered because his brother went back to work. It was in Bentley, Doncaster.

That reporter undercover deserved anything they would have done to him. Lucky for him some of the lads thought against violance

Another interesting video. I have just come across your channel. I am currently writing a crime thriller about how the miners strike still resonates through the UK in current times.

What an incredible poem.

I worked in the Pig & Whistle pub across the road from the Miner’s Headquarters in Sheffield during the strike…these were hard times.

Sold out to Thatchers puppets, And Drank from the Devils cup..RIP uk mining industry

all sides got hosed,the miners were used by scargill,the police ended up being cut till they bled by the goverment after 84,and the country still went out and voted the tories in again in a landslide setting themselves up for the poll tax and all the other stuff that happend.

made in 2002

What good did it do anybody to work through the strike all the mines are closed if the miners had won the strike just think how good things would have been now jobs for all the young men instead of the dole and drug infested pit village's it's your fault if you scabbed

The earth's crust in ratio to the size of the earth is equivalent to the skin of a soap bubble and we will all go pop due to the greed of the privileged few people who are making life difficult for us all and destroying the earth in the process of getting rich and reducing the population and quality of life for us all.
