The Demise Of British Coal

This week has been a very emotional time for everyone who was raised in a coal mining community and for the indigenous Britons in general.

Miners at Kellingley colliery in North Yorkshire, have worked their final shift, the final working day in the only deep colliery remaining in the UK.

Anyone who comes from a 'pit village' will know what a close knit working class family we are (or were), not only did the pits provide employment, everything literally revolved around them, from local heavy industries who would provide products, to textiles who would design and make clothing/overalls etc, also entertainment like Miners welfare clubs and brass bands formed an integral part that held our people together.

You were guaranteed life long employment amongst your own class.

So just as Thatcher enjoyed seeing families against families during the 84-85 Miners strike, Camoron (who is cut from the same cloth) is now wallowing in victory, safe in the knowledge that the white working class are 'on their knees' once again as he finishes the job that Thatcher started...To make Britain, Europe's slaves and make sure the indigenous working people never wield such power again with the trade unions.

RIP King Coal, and could the last one out, turn the lights off.

The BNP support our local businesses because they are so important to our communities, culture and identity. I still believe there is a future for coal and steel and we should support it. If we were not in the EU it could be subsidized - let's get out of the EU - vote NO in the referendum (if it happens) and vote BNP in the next elections.
