成人快手

鈥�'Oh, are you a feminist now?' No, I'm an ordinary housewife with a brain.鈥�

Mark talks to his mum about life for them as the family of a striking miner during the strike of 1984-5, when he was an 11-year-old kid. He hears about the solidarity campaigns and support groups that provided them daily dinners and weekly food parcels - from as far away as Russia.

Travelling to another pit village in the north-east, Mark meets a miner鈥檚 wife who went from, in her words, 鈥渁n ordinary housewife鈥� to running a women鈥檚 support group, helping striking miners and their families, and speaking at rallies.
