LONG LIVE ARTHUR SCARGILL THE ORIGINAL WORKING CLASS HERO

What’s all this about Arthur Sgargill then? I would wager that the people who are having a go at him are in the Socialist Alliance. It’s crazy really, because they are socialists like us working class people in the Socialist Labour Party. Come on you guys stop criticising Arthur and join us. What’s the problems. Long live Arthur!

Call Arthur Scargill whatever you want, but I would follow him into the gates of hell if he asked me.

Here's a fine quote from the Billy Elliot website, frankly it tells me that Arthur doesn't want workers chained to machines forever more and that work isn't the be all and end all, thank god!...

"I Know that we can produce a society where man will cease simply to go to work and have a little leisure, but will release his latest talent and begin to produce music, poetry, writing, sculpture, whole works of art that at the moment are literally lying dormant because as a society we are unable to tap it…"Arthur Scargill, 1984”
