The Miners' Strike: Settlement in Sight? (Weekend World)
Are things coming to a close in the Miner's Strike?
Brian Walden reports for LWT's Weekend World on the prospects for a settlement of the nearly eight-month Miners' Strike in the light of the recent settlement of the dispute between the National Coal Board and the pit deputies union, NACODS. Interviewed are journalists John Lloyd (Financial Times) and Geoffrey Goodman (Mirror Group).
In the event, hopes for an early settlement came to nothing, and the strike continued for another four months before it ended in March 1985.
