"Iron Hand" is a song by the rock band Dire Straits released on their album On Every Street in 1991. The song also appeared on the compilation album Nintendo: White Knuckle Scorin' in the same year of its release. It relates to the Battle of Orgreave during the 1984–1985 UK miners' strike, with Mark Knopfler remarking on how the police charge on horseback into the crowd of striking miners had reminded him of the savagery of medieval times.[1]
