    Lewis, you must read a little more of English history.

    The first mines to be closed were under the watch of one H. Wilson.

    As to the Falklands, what was the UK supposed to do, sit back and allow Argentina to walk in and take over.?

    She was re-elected because she had sound policies, the way all govs should be elected.

    Lewis, you want to replace the anti - British glasses and take a fresh look at history.
    The great Socialist Harold Wilson, started the closure of British coal mine when he allowed the imports of cheap coal from Polish mines to flood the UK markets.
    As for all the coal left in UK, about 300 years, the great Tony Blair killed (or helped) when he signed the agreement to ban electricity produced from coal.

    as Cornwall.As the crow flies,I live about twenty miles
    away from the epicentre,but did not feel a thing,strange.

    Lewis, thank you now let me enlighten you.

    The UK is made up of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
    They speak English, well some do.

    The people, of England are the British but they speak English we hope.

    But British history is the history of England. Though for some reason academics will tell you history of Great Britain is fine but many consider that to be pre Tudor times.

    Confusing I know, now go and have a glass of Chateau Neuf Depape (please excuse the spelling) and enjoy the day.

    February 21st is International Mother Language Day.

    The Welsh language is one of the oldest languages in Europe. It developed from the Brythonic language spoken in most of Britain after the withdrawal of Rome, between 400 and 700 AD.
