Be fair Scatgill did refuse to take delivery of his new Daimler Double Six, paid for of course by the Union, although he did push through an interest free mortgage for his daughter of £100k, for perspective miners were having their secondhand ford escorts taken back by the finance companies, and a three bedroom new build in the area is about £89k TODAY! Scargill was also President for life and continued to draw his huge salary for many many years!
left the typo, its seemed appropriate!
