Tattoo to mark strike


It is the month of the 25th anniversary of the miners strike in Britain and i haven't seen too much about it so will be posting a few discussion points and articles.

I know it was in Britain but was such a vicious and seminal battle in industrial relations in Britain and led to an emboldened Thatcher who carried out her free market revolution that we are still reaping the whirlwind of today.

here's the fist. Slightly lighthearted but it shows what work means to people and communities
