MANCHESTER - STREET PHOTOGRAPHY

The statue of Richard Cobden is dwarfed by Apple's giant ipad billboard in St Anne's Square Manchester.Cobden a Manchester politician made famous for his work in the anti-Corn Law League in the 1800s, along with John Bright (who has a statue himself in Albert Square). Basically the Corn Law raised the price of bread and politicians like Cobden worked against this unfair law.
