It’s been a busy week or so. Last Monday I represented #Emilymatters<\/strong><\/a> and gave the first performance of the new Emily Davison<\/strong><\/a> speech from To Freedom’s Cause<\/strong><\/a> at the inaugural meeting of the York branch<\/strong><\/a> of the Women’s Equality Party<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Here’s a short extract from the finale of the speech, which was inspired by Emily Davison’s writings – from the bravery of the suffragettes to the battles ahead..<\/p>\n
