London, UK. 13th March 2017. A banner for the Shrewsbury Pickets at the Orgreave Truth and Justice Campaign protest at the Home Office after the shocking decision by Home Secretary Amber Rudd not to grant an inquiry into the 'Battle of Orgreave', when police, including military police and others in police uniforms, mounted a carefully planned attack on picketing miners. Campaigners believe the attack was coordinated by the Tory government under Margaret Thatcher with the collusion of the media who distorted their coverage in a deliberate attempt to break the strike, and that the inquiry is being refused as it would be extremely embarrassing to the Conservative government, and recently released documents support their case.
