"LOVE IZ WHAT LOVE DOES!"

Emmeline Pankhurst In 1889 Emmeline Pankhurst founded the Womens Franchise League, followed by the Womens Social and Political Union in 1905. She was joined by her daughters Christabel and Sylvia among others in the fight for Women�s Suffrage. Pankhurst�s tactics for drawing attention to the movement led to her being imprisoned several times, and even experienced force-feeding after going on hunger strike several times. She was also instrumental in placing women in men�s jobs during World War 1. She received funding of several thousand pounds from the government to aid her in encouraging employers that women were in fact fit to undertake these jobs. Her efforts finally came to fruition in March 1918, when women over the age of 30 were given the right to vote. Later that same year, women over the age of 21 were given the right to become Members of Parliament, despite the fact they were still unable to vote. It wasn't until 1928 that women were finally given the same voting rights as men in the United Kingdom.
