A memo to Brian Coleman - Strikebreaking is nothing new

As we've seen pickets, strikebreakers and chants of scabs at NLBP, I found this intriguing clip of strikebreakers in action at Mill Hill Gasworks, during the general strike of 1926

If you go the the very end, is that a Young Councillor John Hart, on the right of the picture?

Quite odd really. I don't think we'll see our Brian Coleman acting as a Coalman any time soon though, do you?
