Excellent! Do please share and support this crowdfunder. The chartists absolutely carried the Peterloo torch...
The late Prof Malcom Chase would be delighted to know that a Blue Plaque is destined to mark the Leeds site of the Northern Star Chartist newspaper. But more money is needed. Please contribute and circulate tinyurl.com/599a52vm @HuddsLocalHist @ihr_history @RoyalHistSoc
This should be good and lively, with challenging themes relevant to modern protest movements / conflicts...

Coming up this week, the Glossop launch for my short history book, one that gives a lively and challenging context to Peterloo and the shockingly violent fight for the vote... eventbrite.co.uk/e/curiosity…
My updated and streamlined website now open!
Latest title 'COURAGE' gives a very interesting context to PETERLOO... (Which is also there, in a freshly printed new edition.)

For the rich as well, right?
ALT Four pictures. One of Keir Starmer with the caption ‘the road ahead will be painful’ another with Padme with ‘for the rich as well, right?’ Another with Keir Starmer and blank text, another with Padme & ‘Right?’

We will be meeting in peace on Friday 16 August to remember those who died at Peterloo 205 years ago. We will read the names of the dead and lay wreaths in their memory at the Peterloo Memorial, in front of Manchester Central, at 6pm.

The Red Cap of Liberty is the symbol of the 2024 Paris Olympics. In the early nineteenth century it was a radical symbol, worn by some at Peterloo in 1819
