This year is 40 years since the start of the miners strike.
Anyone seen either interesting contemporary accounts of anarchists in the miners strike ( eg solidarity actions like this one - The day we took the white tower [Price Waterhouse occupation, Glasgow, 1984] )
Or interesting reflections after the event (eg Nostalgia in the UK - Bash Street Kids ) ?
We have a number of things about the strike at Kate Sharpley Library: Miners' strike (1984-85)
But it would be nice to have some more.
Anyone want to (anonymously if necessary) send some memories in?
(yes, we know we should look at the footnotes in Ben Franks' 'British anarchisms and the miners’ strike')
