[QUOTE="wanton dwarf, post: 4491604, member: 5903"] Arthur Scargill wanted to overthrow Thatcher & bring about a communist state. [LIST] [*]Political journalist [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Marr']Andrew Marr[/URL] argues that: [/LIST] "Many found Scargill inspiring; many others found him frankly scary. He had been a Communist and retained strong Marxist views and a penchant for denouncing anyone who disagreed with him as a traitor.... Scargill had indeed been elected by a vast margin and he set about turning the NUM's once moderate executive into a reliably militant group.... By adopting a position that no pits should be closed on economic grounds, even if the coal was exhausted – more investment would always find more coal, and from his point of view, the losses were irrelevant – he made sure confrontation would not be avoided. Exciting, witty Arthur Scargill brought coalmining to a close in Britain far faster than would have happened had the NUM been led by some prevaricating, dreary old-style union hack." Doesn't that just remaind you of "John McDonnell" & "Jeremy Corbyn" ... The GLC & Mayor of London is just another way of dividing the public & stopping them from bringing the poltical Elite to account so they can milk the public for every penny they haven't got never mind got. If Sinn Fein had a politcial victory Ireland would be re-unified already ... unfortunately for nutters like you most people in Northern Ireland want to be in the UK. Nobody is stopping any region from leaving the UK other than the people living in those regions. Yes that's right Walter .. most of the peopel living in Wales will not agree with your extreme views - which is a constant source of entertainment, you're always good for a laugh. [/QUOTE]
