The Suffragettes
A hundred years ago, Britain was a long way from being a democracy in the modern sense of the word. There was a parliament, and elections but there wasnt the universal suffrage that British people take for granted today. (Suffrage means the right to vote, and universal suffrage is the system in which everyone, above a certain age, has that right.)
The situation in 1907 was that about 60% of British men were able to vote in national elections, but no women could do so. Most people thought it wasnt natural for women to participate in politics instead they believed womens only roles in life were to look after the home and raise children.
Some British women, however, were determined to change the situation. In 1897, for example, a woman called Millicent Fawcett had founded the National Union of Womens Suffrage (NUWS), an organisation that aimed to hold discussions with politicians and try to persuade them that women should have the vote.
The NUWS didnt make much progress, so in 1903 Emmeline Pankhurst founded a new organisation, the Womens Social and Political Union (WSPU), along with her daughters Christabel and Sylvia.
In 1905, Christabel Pankhurst and Annie Kenney interrupted a political meeting to ask two government ministers if they believed women should be able to vote. The two women started shouting at the ministers and said they wouldnt stop until they got an answer. The police were called, the women were arrested, and later they received fines. They refused to pay, and were therefore sent to prison.
This incident received a lot of attention in the British press, which started referring to the WSPU as suffragettes. It also showed that the suffragettes had begun to believe that the only way to influence the government was through actions rather than words.

Over the next few years these actions included refusing to pay taxes, smashing shop windows, and even setting fire to houses belonging to members of the government. Hundreds of suffragettes were sent to prison.
Perhaps the most dramatic protest took place during a popular horse race on June 4th 1913. The suffragette Emily Davison was in the crowd by the racetrack, and when the horse owned by the British king (George V) ran past she stepped out in front of it holding a banner saying Votes for Women. The horse hit her at full speed, causing her very serious injuries. She died in hospital a few days later.
The suffragettes succeeded in getting some members of parliament to support them, but what really changed attitudes towards female suffrage was the First World War (1914-18).
During the war, with hundreds of thousands of British men fighting in France, many women took over mens jobs, for example by doing important work on farms and in factories. This had the effect of changing many mens ideas about womens capabilities.
When the war ended there was a very strong feeling that Britain needed greater democracy. As a result, in 1918, parliament passed an act that gave the vote to all men aged 21 or over, and to all women aged 30 or over.
It was obviously a huge step forward for women, but the suffragettes understandably still wanted complete equality with men. They finally achieved it in 1928, when another act of parliament gave the whole British population, not just the male half, the right to vote from the age of 21.
