Thanks for posting this video. One of the best I have ever seen. I am currently writing a crime thriller partly set during the miners' strike.

Thanks so much. It’s an important story. “The one thing we learn from history is we learn nothing from history.”

Excellent recounting of what life was like for the strikers and their families. Maggie T did untold economic damage to Northern England, Scotland and Wales and untold political damage in Northern Ireland.

Wow , what a video ! I'm struggling to write this wiping tears away from my eyes . Miners did the hardest job for the worst money and people have very short memories . They kept the country going in two World Wars and before that there would have never have been an industrial revolution , as coal was simply power ( in all sense of the word ) . No wonder people celebrated Thatcher's death . Best wishes to all ex miners and their communities .
