Morning!

tickets

Speakers are
Posie Parker
Hannah Clark (ManFriday)
Jean Hatchet
Anne Ruzylo
Julia Long

It's the same night as the WPUK event in Leeds so if you can't get over there come join the Manchester Meeting!

Apparently the venue will be revealed at 4pm tomorrow.

Ursula if you have accessibility/access needs do email them and let them know.

Does anyone know for sure if / when more tickets are being released? I'd love to come but they were sold out by the time I saw this thread!

Thanks I've had the email, from Posie

I'll be fine - if it's a long walk from Victoria I'll get a cab.

It's today! So excited! I've triple checked I've packed my speech and I'll be off up north after lunch.

For people who aren't there it will be live streamed. On Posie Parker's youtube channel, and most likely as Facebook live too.

See lots of you later!

I was going to come but I have a sick small person.
Have a lovely time everyone and I can’t wait to watch along on YouTube.

I ironed my most feminist-y t-shirt

Which of your shirts is the most feministy, G?

Ironing though? That's not very suffragette of you

You'll have to wait for the livestream to find out (I still haven't decided which one to wear, so important to get the right look for the cause, no? More important than anything I have to say for sure )

Good luck, Sweary! DH and I will be tuning in.

Really looking forward to it. Has there been any signs of protesters turning up? I'm blocked by some on twitter so not seen anything

I am sooo jealous of you all - Manchester is just too far for me. Have a great night. Come to London! Please not when I'm on hols

Sweary - Where is this being livestreamed please?

Posie Parker will stream it live from her facebook - it's an open page so look her up, or her youtube channel

Manchester is a long way from London isn't it (I'm just off to catch the train). I'm sure some London plans are in the pipeline and we can get something together for all us southerners.

Thanks Sweary!

Good luck for tonight

I have an appointment this afternoon for the same - been meaning to do it since we hosted the suffragette flag at work back in July.

chuntersalot excellent. I will now spend the evening peering at hands and hissing "were you radicalised on Mumsnet too???"

I'm wearing my protest tshirt but ironing is a step too far for me...

Will somebody attending this please, please ask Posie to fund raise with more T-shirts and sundries.

I will pay good money for a Disrespectful Woman hoodie.

Really looking forward to it. Has there been any signs of protesters turning up?

Venue not announced yet. But there was barely a peep at the Liverpool meeting on Wednesday, which was a nice change.

I'll keep you posted tonight!

Patiently waiting for the venue to be announced as I need to plan my journey.

See you all later xx

Has the venue been released?
