Disappearing Britain Quote

[Ricky Tomlinson is furious at the role that the Conservative government, led by Margaret Thatcher, played in the closure of so many coal mines in the 1980s]
Ricky Tomlinson: To all the doubting Thomases who think that there isn't a future for coal cos it's uneconomic, I'd like to say "Uneconomic, my arse!" Mrs Thatcher, where you're going in a few years time, you won't have to worry about coal cos it'll be bloody roasting where you're going. And I hope the miners have a bloody day out when it happens, because I'll be there with them having a pint. [makes a V sign and laughs]
