Home Secretary Amber Rudd said: There will be no inquiry into the notorious events of 1984 at the so-called “Battle of Orgreave.” However, Mrs Rudd said she did not believe there was “sufficient basis… to instigate either a statutory inquiry or an independent review.”<\/p>\n

Background here:\u00a0http:\/\/https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Battle_of_Orgreave<\/a><\/p>\n

The Battle of Orgreave was a\u00a0violent day of the year-long 1984-85 miner’s strike. \u00a0\u00a0Lines of police clashed with striking miners as they tried to stop trucks\u00a0carrying coke to fuel steel furnaces.<\/p>\n

The police said they\u00a0had to react to protect themselves. \u00a0The miners said they were peacefully protesting when the police charged.<\/p>\n

Mrs Rudd acknowledged her decision would be a “significant disappointment” to the Orgreave Truth And Justice Campaign, but said a raft of “very significant changes” to policing since 1984 meant there would be “very few lessons to be learned.”<\/p>\n
