Arthur Scargill (born January 11, 1938) led the National Union of Mineworkers (NUM) from 1981 to 2000. He founded the Socialist Labour Party in 1996 and is currently the party's leader. Scargill was born in Worsbrough Dale, near Barnsley, Yorkshire. His father, Harold Scargill, was a miner and a member of the Communist Party of Great Britain. Scargill became a miner after leaving school, working at Woolley Colliery from 1953. He soon became a left-wing political activist, joining the Young Communist League from 1955 to 1962. Later, he became a member of the Labour Party between 1962 and 1996. Then he became the leader of the Yorkshire division of the NUM 1973-1981. In 1973, he was instrumental in organising the miners' strike that brought down Edward Heath's Government in March 1974. Scargill became president of the NUM in 1981, with Mick McGahey as vice-president.
