"The former miners’ union leader
Arthur Scargill is due to give evidence
at the high court in London today,
as his old union, the NUM, effectively
try to evict him from the Barbican flat
he has used for more than 30 years.
It’s the final bust-up between Scargill
and the miners’ union he led during
the year-long 1984-85 strike.
Arthur Scargill acquired a lease on the flat around 1982,
when he became president of the NUM,
as the the union was then based in London,
though Scargill soon moved its
headquarters to Sheffield.
The NUM paid Scargill’s rent on
the flat between 1982 and 1984,
but ceased doing so during the strike."
