For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.some industries that had had their day, were not productive, were already being consigned to the scrap heap. That people are their own worse enemies because they want cheap goods whilst moaning all the while they are not British made. Do you buy British goods now, will you pay top pounds for your car, Hi Fi, i Pad, TV, no you won't.
You shop around like we always have for the best deals, i see nothing wrong with that. Coal was an outgoing industry, already downsizing because many people were no longer using coal, it was also a major pollutant. As for nationalised industry we see what happened when Railways were nationalised, no overall investment, old rolling stock, trains cancelled all the time. as someone who lived through much of those times i can safely say that i am glad we have moved on from that.

No
so not much to choose between any of the options; subsidy for those engaged in activities that no longer have purpose whichever way you cut it.
Short of having a magic wand or turning everybody else's coal into sand i'm not sure what would be better.
at least benefits, re-training and help with relocation has helped some to switch to jobs that are viable

Thatcher was a dictator who armed the police to the teeth to beat the miners at will . She used the police as a military unit.
The police beat then on the picket line...beat them in their gardens and even beat them in their homes ......
Images like this one will always be my overriding memory of her time in office.

"Despite the photo's arresting qualities and the fact it now has iconic status, a report by the Campaign for Press and Broadcasting Freedom said it was only published in one of 17 national newspapers at the time - which they say suggests reporting bias"
Happy birth....... nah, perhaps not!

Sod off Talbot.............my brother-in-law was a copper who had to go onto the picket lines during the miner's strike and my sister was absolutely petrified. I was harrassed and threatened by miners because I refused to put money in their collection tin...........Scargill is and was the scum of the earth.
When Thatcher first became PM ,one of her first acts was to compensate the owner of a certain oil company ,in Burma ,that had been nationalised at the time of the coup ,the amount was 100 million pounds of tax payers money ,any person on here that knows who owned that company that she ,compensated???
