Why should a militant Union leader like Scargill believe he has the right to bring down a democratically elected government, especially one with a 144 seat majority and a 15% lead in the general election of 1983. Democracy beats extremism everytime. What if the businesses decided to go on strike because a democratically elected government taxed them more? Would you support their 'right' to bring down a democratically elected government?
@littleteethkeith WTF are you talking about, you thickass cunt? Dennis Skinner is the opposite of a redneck- he's incredibly left wing. Dennis Skinner stands against everything rednecks stand for. Fuck you!

Skinner, with this speech, proves that he is a has been, a failed politician who dwells and lives in the past just like many other failed socialist/communists who still think they are in power. A sad and pathetic old man.

It's nice to see that you guys across the pond have dumb Elvis looking redneck politicians too. It makes me smile,knowing that we are not alone.

Don't know how you'd get a red neck in Derbyshire, where Dennis is from, though.

@Bricray Don't be so up tight. It's just youtube.

It was a joke!
(Based on the general climate in Derbyshire and indeed the UK in general in comparison to where the term 'redneck' originally comes from.)
No offence was intended to anyone.
