Thatcher vs The Miners: The Battle for Britain

2021  / 1 hr 7 min

The miners and their families had endured months of hardship. It had all been for nothing. The miners had lost the strike called on March 6th 1984. They would lose a lot more in the years to come. But was it a good thing for the country that the miners lost their last battle?
