    UK Miners strike

    1984-85.
    It was a strike, by the National Union of Mineworkers, that affected the UK coal industry.
    It was the biggest strike since 1926 and at its height, the strike involved 142 000 mineworkers. The main reason for the strike was that the coal stocks were low and it affected the production.

    Women`s position during miners’ strike 1984-85

    Early in the strike in 1984 Brenda Proctor called to a meeting at the local pit club with lots of other women. They made the national Woman Against Pit Closures campaign. The campaign consisted of miners' wives, sisters and daughters. They went into the heart of the epic struggle against the Thatcher government. They challenged miners' and other trade unionists' assumptions about gender roles, and galvanised a feminist movement that had been dominated by middle-class (educated women).
