Unfinished Business
the miners' strike for jobs 1984-5
By Peter Arkell & Ray Rising
96 pages | 80 photos: £7.99
Now that the economic and financial crash is joined by a deep political crisis within the British state, the opportunities are present for picking up where the miners were forced to leave off. Their insistence in 1984-5 on placing social needs before profit is just as critical and essential a quarter of a centruy later. Miners showed that workers will fight for an alternative to the wilful destruction of jobs and communities by capitalism if they have a firm and principled leadership. Our challenge today is to build a movement that will complete the unfinished business of the miners' strike.
