@wood5y @hamishtpb Good point. I forgot the miners.
Side note: have you seen this? You should for sure. There's also an inquiry going on about Orgreave atm if you're interested.
@MiaMarkTwo @hamishtpb IO remember that the time of the miner's strike, Avon & Somerset Plod deployed on strike breaking had a commemorative badge with a miner's lamp and the initials ASPOM.

@hamishtpb @MiaMarkTwo In good news, Thatcher is still dead.

@MiaMarkTwo @wood5y Thanks, I have not seen it.
@hamishtpb @wood5y It's class, although you might have a little trouble finding it. I bought the DVD second hand from Music Magpie a while back.
On a similar note, you've probably seen this one but if you haven't ...

@wood5y @hamishtpb Subtlety has never been the rozzers' strong suit.
Speaking of police brutality and the west country, did you see that documentary about the Battle of the Beanfield on YT?

)@MiaMarkTwo @hamishtpb I've watched the video on Youtube and saw the TV documentary at the time.

@hamishtpb @wood5y Aye - I couldn't find it on 1337x either. I know that Nae Pasaran has a digital download/streaming option on its site though
Might be worth checking YT/Vimeo for Still The Enemy?

@hamishtpb @wood5y No, I only use it as a very, very last resort. If you don't want to stream from there you could try a YT downloader site like iYouTube, but it might be too long unless there's a version available in segments (which is annoying).
