Veterans of 1984-85 UK miners' strike mark 40th anniversary with march and rally

To give a truthful account of the strike would require that Scargill address its sabotage not just by the NUM areas leadership and NACODS but by the entire trade union bureaucracy, led by the Trades Union Congress, which left miners to fight alone for an entire year. And he would have to address the role of the Labour Party, whose leader Neil Kinnock was a notorious opponent of the strike.
