It very much looks like the order for a confrontation with the Miners came from Government and that is why they have now pulled back from a public enquiry.

Sharp analysis by mr loach. He allways understands british history. Perhaps thats why he makes such relevant films.

I was no fan of Thatcher to say the least but she played the media and the lunatic scargill during this dispute like a fiddle

so 5000 pickets turn up at a coking plant to shut it down and the police are the bandies for enforcing the law and rights of the workers in this plant, its a joke i understand there maybe an enquiry now if Corbyn is elected well i hope it is to also prosecute those pickets that regarded extreme violence as a legitimate right, the police only stood up to those thugs who thought they had the right to bully people and anyone who thought that the police would send only a couple of offices to control a mob of 5000 miners is an idiot and they got all they deserved people like scargill had no interest in miners he just used them as pawns in his anti government agenda as history has now shown he retired on a fat pension and benefits paid for by union funds and he was paid while miners relied on handouts union officials should only get strike pay like the rest ,any misdemeanours by police should be prosecuted as justice should also prosecute miners who broke the law

@@henrypierce8900 yea right ,unions destroyed the mining industry and you supported it , stupid pay claims and an expectation that taxpayers will subsidise coal at a time when imported coal was far cheaper ,and cheaper coal was therefore cheaper to the public ,and you expected the public to pay for you pay rises ,thanks to scargil

He was born affluent and chose to do good things with it. Cathy come home made major social change in Britain having a Charity spring from it. If you just want to hate the rich for being rich fair enough. But I bet you’re just lazy and jealous

I'm a communist, but I'd happily sit on that amount of money and live off of the interest. Doesn't mean you can't have empathy.

Why bother with a public enquiry, Ken Loach knows exactly what happened!

Ken Loach is such a knob....... but on this occasion he is spot on. I suppose if you espouse enough conspiracy theories in your life you will hit the nail squarely on the head occasionally.

In fact I have developed my thoughts on this further in view of the recent decision in the past couple of days. Loach is right, the truth will out and it is out, it was out 32 years ago. Did we know then the police tried to fit them up; yes. Did we know the police used excessive force; yes. Did we know Thatcher had given the police a massive pay rise just after she came to power to buy their loyalty; yes. We ALL knew that back then if you are old enough to recall. A Public Enquiry or Royal Commission will just be a left wing wank fest at the tax-payers expense; like all Corbynite/SWP/NUM/TUC/Momentum/Militant etc ideas. There was a reason why our mines closed. They produced the most expensive coal in the world. It was cheaper to import it from Australia 12,000 miles away and form a coal industry where the miners were as well paid as those in the UK and not a cheap exploited labour force from some third world country.
