Whatever one thinks of 'King' Arthur Scargill's style and methods, he has been proved to be right. Attempts by a television 'do-gooder' to discredit him all failed and no appology was ever issued. Inferiority complex about his predecessor, Joe Gormley? I think not, judging from later relevations about Gormley. The Conservatives were always banging on about the looney left, bogieman Wedgie Benn etc; why did Labour not talk about the loony right? Is it for the same reason that the West (and even a pope) were happy enough effect or to see the downfall of Communism while exteme right wing governments in South America were ignored? The greatest medical-political tradgedy in recent times must surely be the early death of John Smith.
