Stagecoach Manchester 11520 (SK20 AVV), an ADL Enviro 400 MMC in Stagecoach’s azure blue livery is on route 192 in Newton Street along with two other Enviro 400 buses. Behind is 12226 (SK62 AVE) in Magic Bus livery displaying “Not in Service” on its destination panel. 10479 (SN65 OBO), in an older version of the Stagecoach livery, is waiting at the bus stop.

A street with two names, Cavell and Nightingale Street. One was the hero of WW1 and the other the Crimea. I have no idea what is going on here.

Built as a warehouse by eminent local firm, Clegg & Knowles, c1880. Red brick, stone dressings with prominent bracketed cornice and chimneys. Grade II listed. Fairly sure it has been converted into flats.

In a week of Brexit chaos in Parliament, this bill poster seemed to catch the mood. Mark Wallinger, the Turner Prize-winning British artist, created the posters, some of which are as big as 10ft high. They are being installed on various sites in London, Bristol, Manchester and Glasgow. They feature an image of prime minister Theresa May, accompanied by the words of Gerrard Winstanley.. The posters have been printed, distributed and fly posted by the company Flying Leaps and are being displayed as the UK prepares to leave the European Union on 29 March. They are the latest in an ongoing series of artists’ posters produced by Flying Leaps. Other artists who have created works include Jeremy Deller, Mark Titchner and Magda Archer. https://www.a-n.co.uk/news/turning-theresa-may-on-her-head-mark-wallingers-no-brexit-poster-campaign/ Gerrard Winstanley (19 October 1609 – 10 September 1676) was an English Protestant religious reformer, political philosopher, and activist during The Protectorate of Oliver Cromwell. Winstanley was the leader and one of the founders of the English group known as the True Levellers or Diggers for their beliefs, and for their actions. The group occupied public lands that had been privatised by enclosures and dug them over, pulling down hedges and filling in ditches, to plant crops. True Levellers was the name they used to describe themselves, whereas the term Diggers was coined by contemporaries. Winstanley continued to advocate the redistribution of land. In 1652 he published another pamphlet called The Law of Freedom in a Platform, in which he argued that the Christian basis for society is where property and wages are abolished. In keeping with Winstanley's adherence to biblical models, the tract envisages a communistic society structured on non-hierarchial lines, though one likely to have voluntary patriarchs. Mrs May is still Prime Minister. Brexit is probably to be delayed.
