100 years ago today some women got the vote some of the time

(The Representation of the People Act, passed on February 6 1918, gave certain women over the age of 30 a vote and the right to stand for Parliament) It took another 10 years for most women to get the vote most of the time. 100 years later all women get to vote all of the time and it frustrates the hell out of me when women do not vote. Because until we all do all of the time ......THIS......



It is a grand thing today to remember the women of the suffragette movement who sacrificed so much so that future generations of women could be enfranchised. There are calls today for those from the movement with criminal records to be posthumously pardoned - no harm in that IMO.

Happy Centenary!
