yod dropper Posted July 1, 2017 Report Share Posted July 1, 2017 Funny, after telling us all that we have no money in the kitty for public services the pm has mysteriously found a billion pound behind the fridge to give to the Irish pseudo terrorists for their public services in return for propping up her government!

keg Posted July 1, 2017 Report Share Posted July 1, 2017 I am a labour supporter and the sooner they get back in the better may is starting to wish she hadn't bothered to stand she will not be there long then Corbin's youth will elect a labour government watch this space as for Arthur Scargill what a man he said the Tories would shut the pits and they did Thatcher put soldiers on the streets in 1984 to attack her own people Scargill, so democratic he suported secondary picketing, the closed shop and tried to take democratic govts down. He also expects the union to keep him in the tsyle to which he has become accstomed for the rest of his life. How fair! Arthur Scargill, lived a life of relative luxury, turned up at trouble spots only after having his chauffer driven Jag parked @ a mile away then strolled down with his hired heavies to stir up trouble. Army put on to the streets to protect innocent civilians from num thugs, not to attack anyone, Liebour shut more pits in 5 years than the Tories did in 11 years, and as your wife works in the Nhs you may like to know that Liebour spent more money on a failed it system that was a non starter from the beginning, than it would have cost to hire 50,000 nurses for 10 years on a £ 30,000 a year salary.

Vince Green Posted July 2, 2017 Report Share Posted July 2, 2017 (edited) You still hear all this Maggie stuff in South Wales, the mines closed in the most part because the Unions blocked all attempts to modernise and it became cheaper to buy coal from Poland for the power stations. Welsh coal was used for steam trains and that went out the window. North Sea gas was coming on line and people were not heating their homes with coal anymore. But to them it was all Maggie's class war, and some of them have never worked since. Three generations now, all chanting "There's no work, Maggie closed the mines" Edited July 2, 2017 by Vince Green Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For someone who dishes out insults like confetti, you have a remarkably thin skin. All these "young people" turning to Labour and yet they just lost an election with a smaller vote than Gordon Brown. Perhaps you can explain that. PS - your insults "brake" my heart too. Classic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobt Posted July 2, 2017 Report Share Posted July 2, 2017 kellingley pit closed the other year, the miners were insistant it was viable, (some of you may need to look that up) the miners were offered the pit to run themselfs, they refused.

Gordon R Posted July 2, 2017 Report Share Posted July 2, 2017 Thatcher put soldiers on the streets of Britain to run horses over British people . Perhaps my memory is failing. I thought those mounted on horses were the Police. That said, whoever was mounted - Thatcher did not put them on the streets to run over people. I have read some drivel in my time, but that is below stupid. Any chance of an answer on the number of pits that Labour closed? You seem to be avoiding the issue. PS - "knew" is not "new". Freebie.

Uilleachan Posted July 2, 2017 Report Share Posted July 2, 2017 (edited) Well, I'm not a ex miner Labour or Tory voter, whilst the Wilson government closed a few pits and reduced the 1966-1970 mining effort by 40%, those made unemployed all found alternative employment relatively quickly, a readjustment of the industry to suit demand and profitability. Thatcher's government on the other hand, with the help of spivs n' carpet bagging asset strippers (aka MacGregor), put 80% of the mining effort on the brew, squandering the north sea windfall on paying for the increase in the welfare bill, whilst decimating entire mining communities throughout the land, hence why people in those communities won't forget. Rewriting history to reshape how the Tory heritage narrative is viewed in the modern UK, is a nonsense. They can print it in the Mail, they can print it on ConservativeHome, it doesn't make it so.... It was what it was and no amount of spin will change it. Labour have the same problem with the Iraq war, irrespective of how Corbyn voted on it back in the day. It was what it was. Anyway, there should be no additional funding to NI without a resumption of the Stormont Government, Foster should stand aside until it's established what happened to the misspent £500m Cash for Ash debacle; in a properly convened public inquiry. Where impropriety is unearthed the appropriate charges should follow. Edited July 2, 2017 by Uilleachan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
