Who closed more mines Labour or conservative?
Clement Attlee's Labour closed 101 pits 1947 - 1951; (yep Labour started the the trend )
Macmillan (Conservative) closed 246 pits 1957 - 63;
Wilson (Labour) got jealous of old Mac and closed 253 ( 1964 and 1976;) well done that man as he forges into the lead.
Heath (Conservative) closed 26 between 1970 - 74; nice fella
Thatcher (Conservative) closed 115 she had no chance of beating Labours magnificent closure performances.
( didn't Labour do well)
If Greta had been in charge she'd close them all in a single week even if miners were glueing themselves to their pits.
