Crazy, considering the resource that they are mining is still needed to this day. Rather cart it across the globe than support it's own industry., This country sucks.!
Remember back in the 80s most of the public were on the side of the miners. If these mines were here today Just Stop Oil would be demanding the mines be closed.
@@PaddyDoesasia-bj3bb Old enough to read history thatcher was just carrying on with pit closer from Labours Harold Wilson and heath who close double the amount of pits to thatcher in there time in office , Look it up. the only thing thatcher did was bang the finale Nail in its coffin

The torys have always split the working class and are very good at it ,all because the working class let it happen. The real enemy of the working class are themselves, I should know im one of them and I see it . Today we have a tory MP in Don Valley, glad my mam and dad are no longer here to see it .

Closing the colliery’s was a massive mistake now we’re paying for it
You not wrong and both tory and Labour are responsible for that and the problems that came after

Is this the 'working class' who had their income tax significantly cut by Mrs Thatcher, making them richer?
Labour closed more mines than Mrs T.
correct they closed double the amount, Mr T just put the final Nail in the coffin of British coal
Thatcher shut more productive capacity.
She also shut more Grammar Schools, Docks, Shipyards, Steelworks, Factories and Military bases.

ALL THANKS TO MARGARET THATCHER AND THE OTHER SCABS WHO AIDED HER!!!!
Maggie's legacy then she burned all our North sea gas.
Couldnt see you lads today working in a pit
And? Meanwhile, back in the 21st Century......
Couldn't you find a narrator that could pronounce 'colliery'? It's not 'collery'...
Galloway is The Man for these people

He would have a trip down the shaft. But not on the cage.
