New Brighton beach
Andy Burnham is reportedly on holiday. The destination is unknown but again reportedly is abroad. Of course where the PM and his family go on holiday is for them but there is a solid socialist template for heading to the beaches of north-west England.
In the summer of 1857 Engels was unwell and took time off from the Manchester factory to seek a cure by the seaside. He started at Waterloo near Liverpool. He avoided the Isle of Man at the urging of Marx but also ignored his suggestion of Hastings. By early September he was in Ryde, Isle of Wight where he stayed for several weeks. He then headed to Brighton and from there to Jersey, returning in October. Some Marxist Staycation.
Marx wrote to Engels in Manchester on 14th July 1857
If nothing else, the whole course of your illness should have shown you that what you needed physically was to rest, recuperate and temporarily shake off the dust of the office. You must go to the seaside as soon as possible.
A fortnight later Engels had actually made it to the seaside to Waterloo a location not far from the major holiday resort of Southport. Engels reported to Marx:
Here I am last by the seaside… It’s 3 miles beyond New Brighton but to the north of the Mersey.. I hope that the sea air will soon make me fit again for the usual drudgery.
Two weeks later still on 15th August Marx was urging Engels to move beyond taking in the sea air and actually go for a paddle. On 21st August Engels confirmed to Marx that he had done so.
I am delighted to hear that the sea is doing you good, as was to be expected. As soon as you are fit enough to bathe, It will take effect even more quickly, noted Marx
The delights of Waterloo were apparently limited however as by 25th August 1857 Engels was planning a return to Manchester with the aim of going shortly after that to a ‘more bracing seaside resort’. He had in mind the Isle of Man which he had visited with Marx before
Marx was not impressed with this plan and wrote immediately to suggest a seaside resort in southern England:
Why not go to Hastings which is famed for its efficacy in cases like yours. It’s the only specific watering-place of the kind in England. The Isle of Man.. is remarkable chiefly for its stench
Engels however ignored Marx’s guide to holiday destinations and headed instead to Ryde on the Isle of Wight, which became a favourite destination in the years to come. It was not a good start though as Engels complained that he had, ‘finally arrived today at my new lodgings in the middle of a frightful downpour’.

“Staycation” just means what we used to call “holiday” (always in this country), but with the heavy-handed subtext “I could afford to go abroad if I wanted to”. I’m sure that neither Marx nor Engels would have suffered its use!
