Yes he was set up,but he knew they had 1 years coal stockpiled,he took on a fight he couldn't win,and didn't have the same support that the previous strikes had,had.he let his ego drag the miners into a strike that destroyed them.

I remember it,gave to collections for miners and their familys,but most gave for the people not the dispute,very few as I remember agreed with dispute.
Thatcher was using spin before it was invented... Bribed people with their own money and the rest as they say is history.....
Didnt think the brit population would ever be so stupid again... But
Well well well
The FTSE ended 2016's last day of trading at a NEW ALL TIME high of 7,142, which according the mainstream financial press's reporting for virtually the whole year was an IMPOSSIBLE outcome. After all the Brexit EU Referendum vote result was supposed to have heralded a crash, collapse, recession new bear market, NONE of which has materialised!
ALSO
TOURISM is booming in Brexit Britain and 2017 is expected to see the country’s biggest surge in four years.
Tourists are predicted to spend £24.1billion next year in this country – up 8% on 2016, according to Visit Britain.
AND
Britain has already secured more than £16billion in foreign investment deals since June's Brexit vote, ministers announced today.
International Trade Secretary Liam Fox hailed the splurge in foreign spending as 'a clear vote of confidence' in post-Brexit Britain.
Major international firms such as Google and Apple have pledged to create thousands of new jobs in the UK.
Who else is fed up with all this bad news

As you well know all of that is down to the slump in the value of the pound.
Our companies been bought out by foreign owners is not good news even though it has artificially raised the ftse..... Because when we leave the single market they will take their companies and the jobs off shore...
The ftse is significantly overvalued based on the usual measure of earnings per share.... Its unsustainable and another speculator lead crash is now inevitable.... The uncertainty of brexit is however making **** bankers a fortune....so I understand why you support brexit..... The other idiots rationale escapes me.....
Tourists... You ****s will have them banned if you can.

That is the ftse100 as you well know, and international trading cos who will automatically value the shares higher in pounds when we devalue
If we use brexit to become a third world country with wages lower than other western countries we can expect even more tourists coming for a cheap holiday
Anything Liam fox says can be disregarded. 16bn is not high for nearly 6 months anyway. And what a surprise that multinationals who don't pay tax like the idea of brexit Britain
All the things you report are really caused by bad news not good
You'll realise eventually - even the Cheshire genius may get there before the end of the century

The good news is you'll get another chance to change your minds before 2019, when it becomes obvious what a **** up you've created

Seems all will be well ?
I'd ask the Brexit boys to comment too but Cambridge Uni are experts so they won't be interested

Well it seems that we have no Brexit plan after all ( I AM SHOCKED) and chaos is ruling.
Our devalued pound and cut in petrol production means petrol is now 117 a litre and expected to hit 1.25 by the month end...
Factory gate and raw ingredient inflation is already leaping... Of course in a UK not in the EU with no workers rights, no human rights the poor ****ers at the bottom of the pile will continue to be told to suck it up and tighten belts even more.
What will we blame when its not the EU for the tory dogma driven low skills, low wage / slave economy we have become?

Economic growth accelerated in the final month of 2016, as companies across Britain’s powerful services sector reported rising demand in December.
Growth in the sector rose to its highest level in 17 months, according to IHS Markit’s purchasing managers’ index (PMI), as companies recovered from the blow to confidence inflicted by the Brexit vote.
Uneducated, ill-informed Remoan types had feared the referendum result would harm the economy but, so far, there is little evidence of any widespread slowdown.
The services PMI rose to 56.2, up from 55.2 in November. Any score above 50 indicates rising business activity, while a score below 50 shows output falling.
In July the index dropped to 47.4, so December’s figure represents a major turnaround from the gloom of the summer.
The services industry makes up almost 80pc of the UK economy, and the positive figures follow healthy numbers for companies in the manufacturing and construction sectors, too.
“A buoyant service sector adds to signs that the UK economy continues to defy widely held expectations of a Brexit-driven slowdown,” said Chris Williamson, IHS Markit’s chief business economist.
“Collectively, the PMI surveys point to the economy growing by 0.5pc in the fourth quarter, with growth accelerating to a 17-month high at the year end.”
As a result companies are keen to keep on hiring, which may indicate that the halt in employment growth in the most recent official figures was a pause rather than an end to the recent spell of labour market growth.
2 clowns not very happy but the rest of us will be having a party

We haven't left yet. and in a world where employee rights wont exist there is no wonder companies are hiring to take advantage of the last minute panic trading before the shutters come down. After all it will easy to sack everyone come the glorious day...
But that's not what's happening is it
Instead of generating more investment and employment, the data suggest that the British economy is consolidating to raise the productivity of those already employed and deliver them healthy wage increases.
As for you keeping on bleating about the falling £ - you really have no idea do you?
