Don't say it too loud Bridge.

The delegate was called John Scott. I was at the meeting.

You meanwhile was telling your solicitor colleagues how you were a one nation Tory.

Manton was back to 90% of all men by November 1984.

It can't have been a Nottinghamshire pit supporting the strike as a) geography is not relevant, it was a Yorkshire area pit and b) it voted not to strike in the first place.

c) If you need one. The goons who cam down threatening people had to come from Scargill's homeland as most local men had more sense.

Nice to see your loyalty to Wikipedia. I presume, like the bible, it will in future years be seen as the oracle, regardless of reality.

I love how every time I use the term armchair socialist, the next post is generally from you? Funny that.
