Nothing says "Love, Tolerance & Inclusivity" like hiding your face while lurking around a peaceful women's meeting.

What about the noose around the statue. Should we report this to the police? It's our turn to do so, isn't it?

I'd be interested to see some very clear images of that noose. Placing one around the head of a statue of Emmeline would be hard to justify. Working my way through stuff now.

As opposed to very small ribbons tied so as to represent women's rights as all other similar ribbon days and campaigns mark. That led to police visits as they were allegedly so terrifying to witness. #HarberdashersUnite

Aha I've spotted it. Such a long length of ligature, I mean string, I mean long, long, unecessarily long, decorative material. Around a woman's neck. What unpleasant specimens.

Remember that an entire court case was set up against Marion Millar over a bunch of suffragette ribbons. And they were not round anyone’s neck!

The believe in their cause so much they dress like terrorists.

Agree it looks almost like a political uniform that I’m not sure would be legal?

I do not think people should be permitted to hide their faces in public unless there is a stupendously good reason, and that obviously does not apply here. How does someone who is attacked identify her attacker?

They're all so brave that they are hiding their identity.

Masking up speaks volumes

Nothing says why cant you be kind more than hooded lurking men dressed in black . Good to see a decent police presence

It was brilliant how KJ switched venue at last minute so men in paramilitary attire occupying Pankhurst the statue were not able to get close to her. Also she had a kick ass microphone and amplifier to drown them out and the live stream was clear too! 👏👏👏👏

Strange isn't it-- these males who evidently hate us with such loathing, want to be us!

Furious to the point of self combustion----(hopefully).

"Well I've got the dog poo, where are the gloves?"

Long silence.

"Damn it Tim, you had one job!"

They just look like young white males to me. Oh hang on.......

They sometimes like to refer to themselves as 'Anarchists' but they are in absolutely committed to protecting Big Pharma. So a sort of 'Corporate Anarchist' or 'Big Pharma-supporting Antifa'. About as far removed from a real anarchist as could be, with their support for US Big Tech firm and pharmacological global corporations writ large.

These are what Anarchists would look like if they were inspired by Donald Trump.

One of the masked guys at least is black. The one who was asked to blink one for yes.

It must be awfully cold in Manchester!

It was a lovely hot day, at least they had to sweat under those covers.

Isn't it odd that images can evoke other senses. One can almost taste the foul stench of the malaise that lingers around that lot. Pungent.

They can’t fight reality and reality is on the side of women.

JKR has now shared the most ludicrous video from today, the TK Maxx Ninjas guarding the statue. https://twitter.com/jk_rowling/status/1525866488934150145

When it comes to bravery Posie makes all these guys in masks look like a bunch of wimps.

Which is easy to do because that's what they are.
