The real story behind the hit movie “Pride”

Last weekend, I saw the new British film “Pride” which tells the true story of how, during the miners’ strike of 1984-85, a South Wales community received substantial support from a London-based group called Lesbians and Gays Support the Miners. I loved the movie and you can read my review here.

Today, the “Mirror” newspaper has an informative piece about how this interaction took place and quotes from some of those personally involved including Mike Jackson whom I have met. You can read the article here.

Now, please go and see the film.
