SUNDERLAND WOMEN IN THE MINERS STRIKE
We were ONCE a great nation!. These images prove it, we are a shambles of yesteryear. lets hope for a better future.
Did someone _(Orchestral Maneuvers In The Dark?)_ do a cover of this, back in the day? This isn't the same version I used to hear...
The cornet, magical.
Im a great hyme singer. This is one of my favourites, along with "Thetford" and Amazing Grace. Spirituals both black and white. God bless and protect all miners, those in honesty Labour and those that are oppressed. Greetings from Yorkshire.
As a son of a miner, this is so moving and emotional My late father lost his sight in a Colliery accident at the age of just 22 years old After being totally blind for 7 years, dad had pioneering surgery at St Thomas’s hospital in Cardiff, where 30 per cent vision was restored in one eye Having joined a local brass band at six years old, he went on to play in total for 67 years Such wonderful music x
RIP Dad A miner from Monktonhall Colliery, Midlothian Scotland. And a veteran of the 1984 miners strike.
Banger!
Humbling and breathtaking all at once.
My great great great Uncle, Boaz Griffiths was a Coal Miner in Chirk. Sadly he lost his life during the First World War. His Mum was born in Wrexham who were also a mining family, they emigrated from Ireland in the mid 1800s. Today we take life too for granted especially my generation where some of them are work shy, now days the government looks after them, but back then you had to work to provide for your family! It was either work long hours in the coal mine day in day out or end up in the workhouse.
Thinking of you, your loss and your great great uncle. The exploited men that hued the power of this country.
There comes a time for laborers to stand up for their rights.
On the day of the Durham Big Meeting it seems appropriate to hear this again.
I remember buying the album “coal not dole” at the gmb congress off the Durham miners stall! In 84/5? Best album I ever bought! And was so proud and still am to have supported such a worthy cause ! Unfortunately not enough of my generation supported the “Right cause”! And our children/ grandchildren are now paying the price! Rant over! Loved the introduction to the Album by Jock burden but can’t find it anywhere on UA-cam!
The " salt of the earth". These were men.👏👏👏👏👏
My son's school is trying to get the children to cross a picket line by setting them online work, I rang the school and explained the long history of his families union history on his mother's side and said he's no scab. They try to politicise the children, I've said when he's old enough to make his decision he's free to decide himself and that the school simply needs to concentrate on education not politics for children at primary school
Hope yous got Compo" off the Gestapo jobsworths ☢️☢️🙏
RIP Joe Scurfield, I'll never forget your playing, singing, comedy and a profound passion for the socialist cause.
Thank you. I've searched for this song so many times. always wanted to cover it. Every few years I'd search it and not find it, then get distracted and forget. Finally got it!
My paternal grandfather was a miner in the Yorkshire Coalfield and in my imagination, any of the men at 0:55 could be him.
All SCAB stabs their workmate in the back by going back to work. I know some pitmen lose their homes because they could not pay the money because of the strike but they never went back to work. Thay only went on strike for a pay rise. The SCAB was the first once to put their hand out for the pay rise. My brother in-law because a SCAB L hate the bastard for it He always was two faces
Solidarity to all Comrade's
These women are heroes and still inspire.
I am 59 now and this song still stirs me more than any other song from that era, I wish I could buy a copy. NEVER FORGIVE, NEVER FORGET!!!
Very moving.
I'm from a family of steelworkers, engineers and carpenters but I still feel a huge connection to the miners being a socialist from Sheffield, former home of the NUM. We need a real return to working class politics in this country. Austerity is a political choice and has purposely failed the working class.
Sheffield! me too
Thanks for my grammars wheat
The past we inherit. The future we build.

Unlikes on this must be thatcherites and UDM members
When I was a boy , during the 1940s and 50s , there seemed to be a mining disaster every few months . I've never forgotten those days , terrible times for the people involved , whether it was in Yorkshire , Nottingshire , North East or Wales , it had a profound effect upon me , and this sort of memorial music always moves me .
Belgium idem (Borinage, Pays Noir...)
@@e.c.9468 Thank you !

This is a very good song, one of the best to come out of THE MINERS STRIKE. Its lyrics are interesting, funny and it gives a fascinating insight to THE 1984 STRIKE. I found some of it amusing. WELL DONE YOU EVER WROTE IT.👍
Written by the great Ewan MacColl
One of the best songs from THE MINERS STRIKE. I learned the lyrics of this song from an wife of a striking miner. I can still sing it word for word, nearly forty years on.
A beautiful piece of music which I first heard at Durham's Big Meetings in the 90s, and which has remained a poignant reminder of long gone pitmen I have known during my time spent living in County Durham. Salt of the earth lads! This Yorkshire lass salutes you.
Love it put hairs on my neck stand up. R.i.p.lions of miners respect 😢
Like a organ!
Well says it all in the phrase "close the pit whatever the social consequences" the tory party and that bitch thatcher
Could you translate this for me? (As a English)

There are tears in my eyes..
I mind my dad letting me stay off school to go on a picket line. My mum went nuts when she found Out 🤣🤣🤣
That's hilarious!🤣 Honestly I'll bet you learned all sorts of stuff you'd never have learned from school! Great job to your Dad, teaching you valuable lessons 👍
From a legacy like this, Sunderland voted for brexit, handing their futures to the tories. On a plate.
stood many a time on Sunderland picket line ... got my eyes open lol ..
MY GRANDAD IS ON THERE WITH MY DAD NANA
You shoud be rightfully proud of them
Thanks my grandad died last year on August the 16th he told me about this
RIP all of those miners. Do we know who is responsible for this?
Cause not determined
@@james9311 yes, but, what do people think?
@@benibrahimtopal not sure mate, try and find some information from people who have involvement in the incident
The image which appears at approximately 2:29 was taken by Denis Thorpe, the great English photographer. He was born in 1932 and his first photographic assignment was the Cresswell Disaster of 1950. I've had the pleasure of meeting him and we exchange occasional emails.
Shame about the scummy Lenin banner. RIP to those that died
Like aberfan better known for the wrong reasons I’m a former miner rest in peace boys
What a moving rendition!!
Names I know in that grave. All miners. . All just working to provide. All expecting to go home. The enemy within? Fuck you, Thatcher.
