here there are pictures of the first lord larry sheffield william jeff gold a rather mining company. you. and you know what is honestly is me being lord mayor is such a celebration of the so many of the people as it is about me with be a mother who made sacrifices of the friends who grabbed me and so the people of sheffield who really put their faith in me and chose me to be the lord mayor so it's it's just amazing i kind of feel as if like i am just merely a reflection of sheffield at the moment and it's just i mean i generally do feel privileged and honored to hold this position but then with something that happened the past forty eight hours one of your many initiatives on mental health would have you been yes each month i choose a campaign to focus my attention kind of really saw campaign so july was a whole anti rally and advance time coming to the u.k. and august it was the opening of minus campaign for justice and then this month for

me kind of wants to kind of touch on the topic of mental health especially as we lead as it was and well suicide prevention day on monday so i kind of thought well . how can i just country be a bit more and actually just get behind the amazing way it's already been happening so i kind of with the help of local charity and the public health department the council put together a u.k. suicide prevention charter because at the moment on average we have hundred fourteen people with go through to suicide completion each week and there's a lot that we can be doing as members so for me it was a case of putting these charts together and trying to get as much institutions to create an enhanced policy that they may already have when it comes to mental health and specifically suicide prevention because some might say that this position of the lord mayoralty has to be a political mental health arguably a political even prince harry and regular morkel royal family talking about that no

one doubting of course that isn't an important issue but it's you know what it is. i mean like all grieving of course well it's everything you do people keep talking about. people would just rather me not rock the boat or just play it safe and often i was a wasted opportunity like i'm blessed enough to hold this position for me every single thing you do is political when i even became lord mayor. kept hearing stuff like oh we're with this how we always do it we've always done it like this there man and like a lot of negative flack how good is are you breaking tradition like you need to not do things so different i'm like well i completely like saying we've always done it that this is not an excuse like we used to have terrible tradition which we no longer do and you can form new traditions but more important i question everything i've been doing for about why are we doing it what's the benefit of it how can we

change it to benefit the people should feel all this there is a change in city is a vast. progressive change is sitting of course and if you look at how we have more in bags we've more effect to one painterly point five percent remain but even then i generally believe it's a very exciting place when sheffield's is a place where we really don't compromise who we are is a case of you know lovers or you like and some believe briggs is progressive of course but yeah one in four may be in poverty in this city with a few miles from this office of the worst social indicators it's the brunt of a story here of the banking crash what's it like to represent as woodbury city with the african issues yeah first of all it's a big responsibility to make sure to make sure that those voices who feel different there not be and had be represented i'm bringing to the forefront first and foremost we're right due to austerity and all the cuts that we've had it means a lot of vital services a heavily under pressure i'm sure in many cases across

a country like sheffield but we really are pushing the north office in the brunt of that and is like. first it's always trying to come up with creative solutions to problems fair enough we have got the best start but we can't let that be an excuse for us not to provide services or try and come up with innovative ways to solutions you say so we just doing the best that we can come into it but you would agree that we needed the austerity to pay off the losses by the banks made down south in the city of london and you know what it is but i personally feel of this like we as a country we're very we haven't got a lot of money and to be saying that we haven't got enough money for via services i just don't but i feel as if general is a political position where we can find a billion pound for the day you peel when we can find millions a pound to go to war and keep saying we have enough money to do that. we're place

also like as part of the coalition deal to keep tourism in schools but it's also for example like it's nice and well i look at me i'm lord is my example stories like mine are very hard to come by because this is governments hostile environment policy so when we're having to refuse refugees and for example other kids we refused three thousand child refugees from syria because we said we didn't have enough money yet we can find more money to go to war to bomb say which is inevitable in a cause more child refugees for us to say we haven't got enough money to take him in so i look for a long time just fail to believe them and say that we haven't got enough when it's all just a political agenda do you think we'll informs you there is your heritage similarly when it's famously said. is a place bomb under barack obama or it should be. central to the drone campaign in there for him just like in somalia look at what's happening in yemen and in syria it's just a case of like. when we just like of course it's and we need to be treating people

people like humans but i just feel as if. our foreign policy times is the best if i mean as an affair of the flight sometimes it's completely cruel the blairites on the labor party and conservatives and some liberal democrats all say we must get involved in these wars to protect people erm yeah but i would completely say out of the other well look what happened in the whole situation in iraq how did that help us as a country when the whole point of bombing iraq was because weapons we all know was based on lies and look what's happening with libya or do not say it's a case of we'll we want to better the people of libya and support them look at the situation in libya is i'm still here to see us like those other countries go into a country and actually bombing them and seeing the benefits of it if you think opposite i'd love to hear what the benefits like what positive that actually brought by in any example the moment we start treaty and people as numbers and

targets and nash's humans fill us with a problem as where we should be trained people with compassion and i think that's where our times we kind of got it wrong but what was your thoughts about the government finally getting to grips maybe with the windrow scandal where africa will be in britain's will being deported almost as it's a be is out of the country i was for the way they dealt with it was complete shambles if i mean honestly fair enough they may be now trying to tackle a lot better but that's not to say a word with the amber or three of the most time the whole this is going on for a long time but recently came to light so it's nice to see things have advanced in our by what it seems getting better but i feel as if i we've still got a long way to go in terms of how we tackle the i just and we with the whole policy area to be honest i mean it's just i feel as if. yeah just poor months the whole point i'm just going with treating people with compassion i did we're talking about

people who lived here when george said i've contribution it to the country in so many different ways and i've been told they're no longer welcome in the u.k. you wouldn't want vans going in your city not on telling people to shop their neighbors to denotation which is of course opposed over the government another initiative you said that you backed with or grief initially the government to be had to be backing an inquiry backing the independent police complaints commission of inquiry why do you think the government says there is no need for an inquiry into the battle of or grief that took place in this office i can't speak for the government if i'm being honest about why i do understand is that we need a public inquiry to happen because there's still family suffering today and i don't know if you've seen the last hour what subject of it is just asking for the president asking for the president of course home secretary and i don't want to say i so much admiration of commendation to the people august just his campaign who are

courageously constantly actively campaigning on this issue and for me as lord mayor and something within chef and i think it's only my something i want to get behind and especially what people on is actually on when i actually got behind the campaign was the first of august which happened to be yorkshire day and i was also a very yorkshire based campaign as well you see the b.b.c. of apologise for reversing the riot footage lots of the newspapers are saying we know that ok ten thousand miners were involved as the police we knew everything way why have an inquiry into this because if it's fair and just so we know the police were wrong in the situation we know there's a lot of it just says so instead of saying oh he well it's like fair enough we made a mistake but there's still ongoing sufferings and its consequences to those evidence so we need to get to the bottom of this because of the. wise that justice will always be that they'll never be a case where the people of all grief will feel as if i may be treated in

a fair just way so it's something i always tell people just without the right side job to do what you can to get a reply he did not reply some believe that it was supposed to be a lesson or grieve for every worker to obey their boss this is a kind of the beginnings of neo liberalism when these workers were fighting for what they perceived as their rights the thing that sways not replying to do you know what i am and there's hundreds in the hundreds of people wrote right so i don't think the reason of a prize because it is the one so i just come above it i don't know but it's just a case of he's just clearly not interested doesn't want to do anything about it but that's not a reason for myself they thought about if you like i'll be lying if i said you know i want to write some i think is going to is going to agree to many because i want to of course i didn't expect that but for me as well as writing for him it was more important like in the way of

a twin for me was to bring awareness of the cause because that's what i can do for if i can give an inquiry myself if i can highlight the issue using my form that really just bring awareness to the campaign that was my main focus i didn't care where the soggy job was going to respond to me and i but for me was trying to spread awareness of that campaign no matter thank you after the break as declassified papers reveal a plan by mrs thatcher to teach a lesson to workers for river is to reserve a covering up for crimes that all grieve with thousands battled in the south yorkshire countryside against what has become a new liberalism that's all coming up about to going underground.

my body told me that i belong with the boys but my thoughts my mind with and then along with the girls. still be a very popular. person. i was born a male had a sex change when i was thirty years old. i've now been living as a woman for twenty eight years and i fully regret this. problem should have gone away from by now but they hadn't so these surgeries are nothing more than plastic surgery i've had several female to male friends and you look at it and you just go oh god you paid for that it's horrible nobody can change genders is impossible. is still luzhin it's a mental illness. this is now where one of my own flesh of my flesh she shall be

called woman pushy was taken out. when the u.n. was founded it was meant to serve as a forum for dialogue and conciliation the chillen into a u.n. security council meeting and instead of robust debate you often see accusations and allegations of diplomats and just playing to the cameras as the un really become a host of other environments. welcome back where it all grieve in south yorkshire at the site of one of the

defining moments of international neoliberalism thirty four years ago ten thousand miners many actually escorted to a steel coking plant in orgreave south yorkshire were brutally attacked by the haps five thousand police germy corbin says the first act of a neighbor government will be to launch an inquiry into what happened on the eighteenth of june one thousand nine hundred eighty four something prime minister tereza may has rejected critics say her refusal is to protect her late leader margaret thatcher who declassified papers show is implicated in a conspiracy to teach the most powerful trade union in britain a lesson that all workers in the u.k. would for ever learn they believe it pave the way to today's deregulated neo liberal work system of zero hours contracts and casual labor well joining me now is kevin horn from the orgreave truth and justice campaign he was at or grieve in june one thousand nine hundred eighty four given what happened here thirty four years

ago and there is a police riot. on the miners react in a way they were just discussing to say on the day alive that. the horses from the. factory itself. the horses. the miners appear appear almost seem to feel which will be maybe nearly ten thousand minus five thousand police. five six hours and probably when i saw that when i first saw the place i came over the picked. on the word. i thought there were too late because what though much of the information in the field on the word t.v. on the front line these five thousand then you know it just just started by on the horses in the dogs. they weren't even on the frontline at the time. and some of the ten thousand miners were actually a school shit by the police to the field that used to be there yeah on that day.

not like any other day we could get any and. we were being stopped enough to get insurance. and come come we need it on all the days but this day on the eighteenth the law as in they just let everybody in on door showing cultures from south wales wed to. and from scotland and durham and kent. people from can pick it from can couldn't even get through the dots a tunnel all the cycle to that day in southern england in london. so on this day they were all shown in. a given pocking spaces and rounded up in a field. just over the bridges ready to. ready to be beaten open and. on bill's c.p.

below going to necessarily know about i mean what did it feel like when i maybe you were you you'd be in charge of a riot which at that time was a life imprisonment event when the b.b.c. . clearly showed the british public that it was you and nine thousand ten thousand a lot of the miners when it was you being violent would it you'll feel about. well . a lot felt about it while it was there it was the other way round the place will be in violent what it was literally the other way round the footy. it was the other way round and the place of. being violent on. and we realised that we shouldn't have gone we realised that when we saw least police we should have gone home we realised that later we were to let that we were here for the duration. or several times throughout the day when my people saw well go on. but when the

when the. horses first job just it wasn't the quiet time after the wagons had gone . after after the wagons and bain sailed oh and gone home and faithful coming up to the as a stall on by a sandwich is an ice creams and things and. that was a time that the police the office shot just. when my man was out on the grass a time we did. it wasn't the the i told the. pull it off and then would then use all blood i got arrested at the bottom and so. i didn't see the blow and so until i got into into a police station. where i were going to feel playstation in there and i could see the other moaning and groaning and screaming and still. found i we got

transferred to rather and. when i got how i would tell myself with a lot we could see blood and snorts and you run all over the place. where we saw somebody had been really you know and that never got to rather and the point was in a quadrangle with all the other prisoners and the people there would be small and heads and scrolls and brought nouns and likes. and no medical attention. as soon as i walked in some to grab hold of me jumper and tied tightly around the slabs leg and that's the last or were doing the mine is well first and then trained on the one. set on these men oh oh well they. caught it off to prison. so i'm with prison. and they have until. after everybody had been in to magistrates go out why do you think to raise them

a is seemingly go back all the rudd divorce he resigned in disgrace seem to say which is they would be ending wire into the bottle of old green what do they want to hide anything for the want to idea is that the government was directly involved with the policing of the mine is. directly involved they had an office in scotland . where all the whole people you know the they teach the police. all the all the. evidence. from the files in the whole library university library. go on until twenty six. don't. mean that we should be asking questions of why why are they and bob want it so we all die so we might not hear about what happened on that day for half

a century yeah. obviously we're only one before i die you know. where things are going to be before matilda and die if that. thank you. we're in the nine hundred two headquarters of the south yorkshire mine is association building in bones the and i'm with the general secretary of the national union of mineworkers chris thanks for letting us into this is storage building just before we get onto that history what do you have that the conservative government are going to go ahead with an inquiry into will grieve off to denying you were well i'm hopeful that the will see the reason that the juice to sell him and to await the questions that need to be answered you know it was it was august rated riots as far as i'm concerned because i was there but the riot was not

on our side it was all straightened by the state and the police and i think that we need to know. that and so that safe gas can be put in place to make sure it doesn't happen again you see people are now saying that new documents show that there has been surveillance of people after all agreed you think you were under surveillance i don't think i would personally surveillance as a seventeen year old striking miners at the time but i definitely believe that that the. was under surveillance and was able to infiltrate was this building would have been bugged i wouldn't be surprised if this building was built on the offices that we held in sheffield at the time i would be surprised that people on the picket line you know the police officers that wouldn't surprise me and it's not cool the exchange is named john meeting undercover police inquiry into bugging of people like jeremy corbin what is your union doing as regards giving evidence to the inquiry well we obviously the inquiry the evidence the sketchy because you don't

know if somebody's done a covert operation on you and that was one of the sticking points if you like when they tried to exclude us from the inquiry they asked us to provide evidence that we were spied on and well that we haven't got the evidence that was spied on because if they did it right we will know that they were spying on us but obviously during the strike with information that will eat there was there was definitely some kind of surveillance. operation being constructed against the i knew m. and its members at the time i should say that there is a gesture of that in the book the enemy within by jeremy corbin's present communications advisor seamus milne. corbin unlike any labor leader i can remember addresses the derm minus goal what is the importance of the end you have been mining of because the mining industry has been destroyed as a legacy of margaret that was the point of the end you have the miners go to the favorite to be the next british prime minister i think the point is the history

because you know the. the miners were farming the labor. we've always had a socialist view the one nine hundred eighty five strike was based on keeping the right to work on social justice somebody able to go you know do a day's work in a day's pay look after your family and improve not just. in the way that we lived but for those children the future generations so i think the histories they had i think jimmy recognizes the history of the of the mining unions and the coal mining industry as a whole and i genuinely think that it. a privilege to speak at the did a minus. he is always attended every time we spoke the last and i think it's important we continue to read that link we may have lost the industry that doesn't mean to say that we have to lose the social values that were built

with our industry then with this room means to me this. we want to ground we want well paid when this you know building was was done. but we still always strive to be better and to improve not just our lives but the lives of his kids and his grandkids and that's what this this building symbolizes to me that you know the minus collected the money and we built something that that was what we aspire to be we aspire to have big meeting halls you know decorations and and that's what's on the banners that decorate the walls of this building it's the social justice the fact that you know you work out and you will profit you will benefit from me and all the people should not benefit from your labor more than what you benefit now the in name appears to be accusing the government not only of betrayal over the order of inquiry but about impoverishing present members over the end you have in terms of their pensions just explain the pension scheme as

a separate one point two billion pounds but the government is taking that money. theoretically that six hundred million could go to. banks who knows what is going on with your pensions of your member. being ripped off. ripped off because of a deal put together in one nine hundred ninety four as part of privatizing. the government fifty percent of the surplus is generated from the pension scheme. is distributed to members by way of a bonus we have. at least ten years now been saying that the deal is unfair the government expectation that all reports the nine hundred ninety six this is a good deal because they could expect to make profit over twenty five years from the two minus pension schemes. eight billion pounds profit now the try to index

link the two billion pounds. and said that's actually a billion pound now so the increase on the profit they expect it to me unfortunately minus pensions on the eighty seven percent in the same period and you would think that you'd use the same index link in an obviously did increase by four hundred percent the won't be that much of an argument about the. but for the government to take fifty percent of. for providing a guarantee for a scheme that. small risk of failing that actually getting money for nothing which is you know why we term it that the rip in the mine workers off. we paid the money in as employer paid the money in that money should be used to pay pensions improve pensions shouldn't be used to prop up a government. thank you that. will be back on.

the day of the bankruptcy probably the brother. you know world big partisan movie lot and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that mainstream media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smarter we need to stop slamming the door on the back and shouting past each other that it's time for critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle for the truth the time is now for watching closely watching the hawks. prosecution will need to become almost. where you push on this thread you'll find.

somebody number one place you do i mean yeah i mean i mean political pressure on the god you've concluded to know through security genocide knows when to put your mind on that business models he was my american corporations. he's sold them could matilda's you to use. on the scene and the solution. lies up in association with. newton he saw as it is just somebody with deleting data and investigative documentary. ghost war on oxy. the.
