“The strike had been a major national event. It was a tumultuous period in my life and in the history of the union. It would be a long time before the membership had the stomach for another national strike. If anyone had told me in 1971 that when that time came I would have the responsibility for settling it, I’d have thought they’d taken leave of their senses.”

“As for Scargill’s insistence that he’d been right about the Coal Board’s plans to close pits: as somebody once said, the job of the trade-union leader isn’t to predict rain, it’s to build the bloody ark.”

“As well as myself, there was Paul Swinson, whose father wrote comic songs for the Parlophone label, recorded by the likes of Peter Sellers, and a tall lad whose Mod stylishness was rather spoiled by Hank Marvin-type horn-rimmed spectacles. His name was Stephen Hackett, or Steve Hackett, as he was better known later, when he became famous as a guitarist with Genesis and GTR.”
