Industrial action in British coal mining

A miners' strike took place in the United Kingdom in 1972 as a result of a dispute over pay between the National Union of Mineworkers (NUM) and the Conservative Edward Heath government. Miners' wages had not kept pace with those of other industrial workers since 1960. The strike began on 9 January 1972 and ended on 28 February 1972, when the miners returned to work.
