Spent the day pottering round Manchester, going first to @TheJohnRylands' Peterloo exhibition and then to @PHMMcr (also for Peterloo stuff). The woman second from left in this 1884 photo of Failsworth reformers is Susannah Whittaker, my 5×Great-Aunt. #jrlPeterloo #PHMPeterloo
200 years since the #Peterloo Massacre, @PHMMcr's From_To_ exhibition features a range of crowdsourced artworks inspired by that event. Just 5 days left to see it! #PHMPeterloo #Peterloo2019 https://t.co/M7zCuZ4VDg

#PHMPeterloo exhibition is totally inspiring and depressingly relevant. Particularly the protest lab section. Inspiring radical change and encouraging a community of activism. Kudos @PHMMcr that place never fails to rouse THE SHIT out of me. ✊🏼
Been to @PHMMcr’s Disrupt? Peterloo and Protest exhibition yet? Explore unique artefacts including this dress worn by Mrs Mabbot who was caught up in the violence of the day, and get creative in the Protest Lab. It’s just a short walk from the Library! #PHMPeterloo #Peterloo2019
@PHMMcr explaining peterloo to 6 year old at breakfast (thanks to uncle mark!). ‘Mummy I might be a politician, I’m everyday folk’ #phmpeterloo starting conversation, inspiring the future
In the space opposite there’s space for visitors to use to promote and take part in activism in commemoration if those who gathered at St Peter’s Field in 1819. #PHMPeterloo #Peterloo2019 #MCRcultureswap #EnglishTourismWeek19
In 1872 Secret Ballot Act allowed voters to elect an MP in secret. The box was used in the first ever election held after the passing of the act. Amazing to see the box on display @phmmr. #PHMPeterloo #Peterloo2019 #MCRcultureswap #EnglishTourismWeek19
Despite public sympathy in response to the massacre, the government’s responsebwas to toughen laws which limited the freedom of the public and press. The new legislation became known as the Six Acts. #PHMPeterloo #Peterloo2019 #MCRcultureswap #EnglishTourismWeek19
What started as a peaceful demonstration in St Peter’s Fields (now known as St Peter’s Square), quickly turned violent when the yeomanry were sent in. Over 700 people were injured and 18 lost their lives. #PHMPeterloo #Peterloo2019 #MCRcultureswap #EnglishTourismWeek19
The people wanted a voice. On 16 August 1819, men, women and children walked from villages in and around #Manchester to see the famous Henry Hunt speak on the need for electoral reform. The first March came from #AshtonUnderLyne. #McrCultureSwap #EnglishTourismWeek19 #PHMPeterloo
In 1819 around 2% of the British population had the right to vote and #Manchester didn’t have its own Member of Parliament. Wages had halved and many were left unable to afford basic food. #McrCultureSwap #EnglishTourismWeek19 #Peterloo2019 #PHMPeterloo
I really enjoyed making the film on #Peterloo l urge as many people to get down to @PHMMcr and have a look at the Peterloo and Protest exhibition #Peterloo2019 #PHMPeterloo @mcrhistfest @greatermcr #Tameside #Manchester
A great day spent checking out the new #Peterloo exhibitions @PHMMcr @TheJohnRylands - both excellent and thought provoking #jrpeterloo #phmpeterloo
