Aberfan. What a horrific tragedy.
That disaster took place before I was born, but I first became aware of it through the “Fascinating Horror” YouTube channel. It was hard to wipe my mind around such an occurrence.
“The Royals” series had an episode about Aberfan. That episode was hard to watch.
The response by the National Coal Board was outrageous.
I’m sure it shaped Thatcher’s opinion that Britain had to phase-out the coal industry.
