Questão 2
Questão
The General Strike started because miners felt [blank_start]underpaid[blank_end] for their work. The [blank_start]Sankey[blank_end] Commission in [blank_start]1919[blank_end] recommended that government [blank_start]ownership[blank_end] of mines continued yet the mines were handed back to private owners in [blank_start]1921[blank_end]. Many mine owners failed to invest in [blank_start]mechanism[blank_end] and [blank_start]80%[blank_end] of coal was mined with pickaxes. Mine owners [blank_start]increased[blank_end] the working day to [blank_start]8 hours[blank_end]. The government subsided the miners wages for [blank_start]9 months[blank_end] to avoid a strike.
