"backwoodsman, you just dont get anything do you, Scargill was only one of a majority of union leaders who wanted a strike, and he did not in fact, vote."

I won't even bother to dignify that tripe with an answer, other than to say that:-

a) the poster knows nothing about me, my background, my employment history, and has no way of knowing what I 'get' or don't 'get'. That's fine and how I like it.
b) no purpose is served by this kind of thread, not one miner's wrecked life will be repaired, no-one will be any happier as a result of it.
c) it was 28 years ago, the world has moved on, and the kind of "Yah-Boo" stuff we've seen here is pointless and much of it is just blustering, blathering argument-for-argument's-sake.

Time to get panties out of arse-cracks and move on.
