Get the BBC to apologise for there reporting of the battle of Orgreave

Additional Information

The BBC should apologise for there biased reporting at Orgreave putting the blame at the miners. Miners were charged at unprovoked by please on horses. BBC reports at the time claimed that police responded to protesters throwing missiles which was completely false information. I call the BBC to apologise as this damaged the public support and perceptions of the miner.
