"Campaign Against Pit Closures - NUPE poster, 1992" [BW0075], 1992, Trades Union Congress
On October 13, 1992, the Government announced that 31 of British Coal's remaining pits would close with the loss of 30,000 jobs. The National Union of Mineworkers launched a campaign against the closures which gained widespread public support, but which in the end was generally unsuccessful in securing the future of the coal industry. This poster entitled 'Release the energy within' was produced for the National Miners Support Network by the National Union of Public Employees. |
