Campaigners from the Orgreave Truth and Justice Campaign on College Green, London in 2016
THE government faced fresh demands today for an independent review of unreleased police files related to the attack on striking miners at Orgreave in 1984.
The Commons home affairs select committee has discovered that South Yorkshire Police have identified almost 800 files related to the so-called Battle of Orgreave, committee chair Yvette Cooper told Home Secretary Amber Rudd in a letter.
Campaigners welcomed the committee’s hard work, but called for the release of all files relating to Orgreave, whether held by South Yorkshire or other forces.

The public inquiry is the result of more than a decade of determined campaigning. Now, those who fought for justice want the full story of government involvement and police conduct to be told, says KATE FLANNERY
