EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print captures the iconic Scottish miners leader, Mick McGahey, at the offices of the National Coal Board in the 1970s. McGahey, a member of the Communist party and Vice-President of the National Union of Mineworkers from 1972 to 1987, was a fierce advocate for workers' rights and social justice.
In this image, McGahey exudes strength and determination as he stands tall in his role as a champion for coal miners across Scotland. His presence is commanding, reflecting his unwavering commitment to fighting for fair wages, safe working conditions, and respect for all miners.
The history behind this photograph is rich with significance, representing a pivotal era in mining industry activism. McGahey's leadership during this time was instrumental in shaping labor relations and policies within the coal mining sector.
