Miners battered by the police in 1984 still await justice as Labour pledges to launch a probe — but will any new inquiry pry loose the BBC’s buried footage and expose the Tory lies that framed innocents, asks CHRIS PEACE

The Tories' attempt to broaden police powers in dealing with protest adds urgency to the call for an enquiry into events at Orgreave, writes CHRIS PEACE

State-led repression during the 1984-85 miners’ strike has a frightening number of similarities to the situation workers and campaigners find themselves in today, writes CHRIS PEACE

A rejuvenated interest in trade unions and the labour movement among younger people shows battles such as Orgreave are not ‘consigned to history’ – but part of an ongoing class struggle that’s still very much alive today, says CHRIS PEACE
