You mean, it's 40yrs since a loss making industry fast becoming obsolete , was dragged kicking and screaming into the 20th century. The change in how we were living and the less need for coal meant tax payers money could no longer be pumped into the coal industry. Plus, having a minority group hold the country to ransom is always glossed over. Change had to happen and we were lucky it came so long ago instead of today.
It was about saving jobs for the future to the next generation.Look at the prices the uk public paying now on utility bills a lot more than 40 years ago
@@gazza1858 Saving what jobs ? You mean coal industry jobs in a dying loss making industry. Everything is more expensive 40yrs later. No one in their right minds would want to subject men to return to the pits. Things move on and harping about the past means nothing now.
The point was there were absolutely no contingency policies in place for the thousands of people, families and suppliers who were decimated by it. It destroyed communities, that’s not good government.
@@keithrobson593 Tell me when the was a good government with the peoples interests at heart ?. Like we all had to in industries that were changing, you adapt and move on. I owned 2 butchers shops and left school at 14 to work in the meat industry. I am now a civil engineer. You adapt you survive, and you don't whinge about it like you did up North.
@@keithrobson593 words like "decimated" and "destroyed" are vague, meaningless terms, used by unions and the Left to gain support on an emotional level, rather than an intellectual one.
