When Description Source
Since 1984 Bronski Beat supported the Lesbians and Gays Support the Miners (LGSM) campaign during the 1984-85 miners' strike. The band appeared at the Pits and Perverts benefit organised by LGSM, with Bronski Beat presenting a gold disc as a raffle prize. Jimmy Somerville continued supporting demonstrations connected to the miners' cause after leaving the band. Source
The band's members were openly gay and connected their music to the gay-rights politics of the period. Source
