O/T The Price Of Coal 1977 BBC Drama

[millmoormagic]

Can you explain how it is a different issue? Whether the mines were to be closed for economic, political or environmental reasons is irrelevant to the issue of whether jobs would be lost.

Reading the posts on here, it's hard not to conclude that the jobs you were fighting for were dangerous and unpleasant ones that you didn't really want.

You are mistaken in your belief that I am a climate change denier, by the way. I think perhaps the head of steam that you developed on the fracking thread may have blinkered you on that point.

On the topic of the thread, I remember the programmes being talked about at school, but have never watched them. I may well do so when I am back in blighty.

I'll tell you how it's a different issue, back then coal was still king, the banks were still giving x4 annual wage mortgages to miners as it was a 'safe' industry, lifetime of work etc etc and there was no mention, none whatsoever of any climate change problems regarding coal, again. Lets fast forward to here and now, it's plain to everyone apart from the profiteers that fossil fuels are seriously damaging the planet, as a staunch supporter of the coal industry in the past, i can happily accept that indesputable fact and campaign for the end to that use of fossil fuels....you, as a staunch supporter of the free market, wants to continue the use of fossil fuels, indeed you're actively encouraging the use of ever more 'dirty' types of said fossil fuels, ie brown coal, fracking etc etc, well done you super intelligent fella, your shares are all up, your grandkids all have asthma and can only play outside 1 hour a day......great choice.

As for you reading/watching stuff when you're back in blighty....really, i mean, all you've done for the past week or two is post your deflection on here, while you're 'supposed' to be on hols.....give me a break fella, if you're on hols and doing this shyte you're a facking dollshead, even so, if you're on hols you can still watch whatever you want these days, so, what's your agenda, really, i love a bit of honesty myself, and i think you're the least honest on here, a charlaton, even gf, though deluded, has more integrity.
