English: I was at a commemoration event on the weekend with miners of St John's, Coegnant and Garth in my community and other mines that came together over 100 years ago to put their wages together to build a community hospital. They took the opportunity to speak with me and they were hopeful that the outcome that we've heard this week would not be the one that we have heard. They were hoping at least for some sort of inquiry. The fear was that it would be a half-soaked inquiry; we now have no inquiry whatsoever. They reminded me that we cannot forget that the backdrop to these calls for an inquiry was the shameful episode in the history of the UK, where a Government decided to take on and destroy a union, and in so doing, regarded as collateral damage the people and the families and the communities that were caught up in that political struggle. We know now that it was a political struggle. The papers have come out and shown it very clearly that there was, indeed, collusion between the state and police in order to trample on these miners and on their communities, and that's what the backdrop to Orgreave is all about. They said to me, 'We need to know, on the day in question, under whose orders or instructions? Under whose order? Who gave those orders to allow the police to carry out these atrocities against decent working people who were there on that day trying to defend their industry, their jobs, their families, their communities? Who was actually responsible for those decisions that left many miners and other innocent people present being badly injured and scarred for life, both mentally and physically? Why have they not been brought to account some 32 years later?' And we still will not know, because the decision this week has meant that, under this Conservative Government, there will be no inquiry. It will have to wait, I suspect, for a future Government to inquire into this. But that is needed to deliver truth and justice for those people who were at Orgreave and who recognise that it will never be finished until we know the truth behind who made those decisions, and that's for the police as well. It will never be cleared up until we have the answers to this, and it's a disgrace, the decision that we've heard this week.
Welsh: Roeddwn mewn digwyddiad coffa ar y penwythnos gyda glowyr o Sant Ioan, Coegnant a Garth yn fy nghymuned i a glofeydd eraill a ddaeth at ei gilydd dros 100 mlynedd yn ôl i roi eu cyflogau at ei gilydd i adeiladu ysbyty cymunedol. Cawsant gyfle i siarad â mi ac roeddent yn obeithiol nad y canlyniad yr ydym wedi'i glywed yr wythnos yma fyddai'r un yr ydym wedi'i glywed. Roedden nhw'n gobeithio am o leiaf rhyw fath o ymchwiliad. Yr ofn oedd y byddai'n rhyw hanner ymchwiliad; nawr, nid oes gennym unrhyw ymchwiliad o gwbl. Fe wnaethant fy atgoffa na allwn anghofio mai cefndir y galwadau hyn am ymchwiliad oedd y bennod gywilyddus honno yn hanes y DU, pan benderfynodd Llywodraeth frwydro yn erbyn undeb a'i ddinistrio, ac wrth wneud hynny, ystyried mai difrod cyfochrog oedd y bobl a'r teuluoedd a'r cymunedau a gafodd eu dal yn y frwydr wleidyddol honno. Rydym yn gwybod nawr mai brwydr wleidyddol oedd hi. Mae'r papurau wedi dod allan a dangos yn glir iawn bod cydgynllwynio yn wir wedi digwydd rhwng y wladwriaeth a'r heddlu er mwyn sathru ar y glowyr hyn ac ar eu cymunedau, a dyna beth yw cefndir Orgreave. Dywedasant wrthyf, 'Mae angen inni wybod, ar y diwrnod dan sylw, o dan orchmynion neu gyfarwyddiadau pwy? O dan orchymyn pwy? Pwy roddodd y gorchmynion hynny i ganiatáu i'r heddlu gynnal yr erchyllterau hyn yn erbyn gweithwyr parchus a oedd yno ar y diwrnod hwnnw i geisio amddiffyn eu diwydiant, eu swyddi, eu teuluoedd, eu cymunedau? Pwy oedd mewn gwirionedd yn gyfrifol am y penderfyniadau hynny a adawodd lawer o lowyr a phobl ddiniwed eraill a oedd yn bresennol wedi'u hanafu'n ddifrifol ac wedi'u creithio am oes, yn feddyliol ac yn gorfforol? Pam nad ydynt wedi cael eu dwyn i gyfrif ryw 32 mlynedd yn ddiweddarach?' Ac ni fyddwn yn gwybod o hyd, oherwydd mae'r penderfyniad yr wythnos hon wedi golygu, o dan y Llywodraeth Geidwadol hon, na fydd ymchwiliad. Bydd yn rhaid inni aros, rwy'n amau, i Lywodraeth yn y dyfodol gynnal ymchwiliad i mewn i hyn. Ond mae angen hynny i roi'r gwir a chyfiawnder i'r bobl hynny a oedd yn Orgreave ac sy'n cydnabod na fydd hyn byth wedi gorffen hyd nes ein bod yn gwybod y gwir am bwy a wnaeth y penderfyniadau hynny, ac mae hynny yn golygu yr heddlu hefyd. Ni chaiff byth ei ddatrys hyd nes bydd gennym yr atebion i hyn, ac mae'n warth, y penderfyniad yr ydym wedi'i glywed yr wythnos hon.
