Description

The Strike of 1984-85 shook the foundations of British society, tearing apart traditional mining communities and leaving them in tatters. Twenty-five years on and after thirteen years of a Labour government, there are many communities, not only former industrial ones, that languish outside the mainstream. And as David Cameron, castigating against 'broken Britain', takes power, "No Redemption" looks back at one particular broken community, Easington Colliery.
