Nidge (L) & Laurence kiss in front of the flames during the Poll Tax riots.
London 31 March 1990.
The death blow for the discredited Thatcher government. More than 100,000 gathered in central London to protest against the tax. After repeated police charges on the crowd riots erupted, shops were looted, police vehicles & government property was attacked, buildings were burned. The total cost ran into 100s of millions of pounds.
