"The 1918 'Representation of the People Act': A Victory For Women....Or Men"
Speaker: Anna Muggeridge
This talk explores the campaign for the vote during the Great War, in particular the ways in which it was the pressure to enfranchise working-class men (who could not vote pre-war) that led to changes in the franchise, with (some) women being included, it would seem, almost as an afterthought.
Members and non-members of The Western Front Association are equally welcome.
Any new visitors are guaranteed a friendly atmosphere and a warm welcome from a group of like-minded enthusiasts.
We look forward to welcoming you to our branch meetings.
