This year we are celebrating the 100-year anniversary of some women getting the vote, achieving a step to independence for the first time.
We are also appreciating and realising the struggle that these mostly working class women went through to achieve the vote.
Arrests, hunger strikes, force-feeding, sexual assault and insults such as “women wouldn’t know what to do with the vote if they got it.”
