I think the Thin Blue Line became a thing during the miners' dispute 1984-5. I think the press were suggesting the police were protecting the rest of society from the starving miners. I was there but all the action was at places other than where I was. We "southern forces" were mostly seen as the good guys whereas the Met were, and always have been, cunts whenever they're off the leash.
