Enjoyed revisiting these memories, and mine, of that day of his visit to a local branch of the Union he belonged to in the U.S.S.R.?, the Ironworkers. I used be familiar with the area where he visited, since I was a Methodist Minister working in Whalley Range Methodist Church on Withington Road.

I too remember his visit. My school organised a visit to Ringway ( Manchester Airport) to greet him if the plane. But they only took the boys! My twin brother reported back to me. Perhaps an early sense of injustice leading to a lifetime of Feminism!
