    No - the mining areas have not been in an isolated time warp -they were simply isolated. Why else would Thatcher order the stock piling of coal at collieries prior to a deliberate confrontation. What happened back in the 80's was an orchestrated emasculation of the mining communities(no not just the union). The government illegally colluded with the police to prevent national picketing and ultimately shafted families nationally.

    Gary's experiences on the picket lines at the hands of the met police are harrowing to say the least.
