People’s History Museum issue apology after 'gender critical' group host boardroom meeting

Bosses at People’s History Museum (PHM) have issued a statement after the venue hosted a meeting by a group deemed by some to be ‘trans exclusionary’ and 'gender critical'.

The museum, located on Left Bank in Spinningfields, was the subject of a ‘hostile environment on social media’ after members of the Sex Matters group held a board meeting at the premises. PHM has since said it does not share the same values as the group.

Researcher and writer Maya Forstater tweeted on Sunday (June 25): “Fabulous weekend in Manchester - great @SexMattersOrg board meeting @PHMMcr and night out with @WRN_Manchester.”
