There are people in Scotland that crossed the coal miner's picket lines in the 80's who are pariahs to the day.

It's not a nice situation for anyone but they damn well knew that they were selling their souls. Fuck them.

Not just them, their whole family. There are people in Wales and Scotland that were bullied at school because their dad's crossed a picket line. It's something that'll almost literally define their lives in that area or country.
