The 2006 Labour Party conference in Manchester was dominated by the news of Tony Blair’s departure from office. Ten Tiny Toes is the culmination of interviews taken during a three-day peace camp in Manchester with people involved in Military Families Against The War (now called the Iraq-War Families Campaign Group.) The conversations were shocking and illuminating.

Playwright Esther Wilson was in Manchester for those four days but she didn’t attend the Labour Party conference, instead she was out and about in the peace camp set up in the city centre within full view of Blair’s hotel by the campaign group, Military Families Against War.
