Thread Name: 1984 UK Miners Strike discussion (relocated)
Subject: RE: 1984 UK Miners Strike discussion (relocated)
my point is that it was a decision of the miners executive 13 to 8, 3 abstentions , scargill did not vote, and yet you do not rail against the other 13 who voted to strike, or the 3 abstainers.
you are obsessed with Scargill, for you he is a useful scapegoat that you can heap all the blame on, that is pathetic,and childish
Whatever you say about Scargill, he was not reporting back on union meetings to the special branch like Gormley.
NO union leader should be reporting back on union meetings to either the special branch or MI5, THEY ARE PAID TO REPRESENT THE PEOPLE WHO ELECTED THEM.
