Bud the Baker Posted February 6, 2018 Report Share Posted February 6, 2018 Mental women fighting for the right to vote get imprisoned - it's been a Longtimecoming but it's something I take for granted today. Question Time on BBC has not moved it's still on a Thursday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric Arthur Blair Posted February 6, 2018 Report Share Posted February 6, 2018 Not every woman got the vote 100 years ago, only those who owned property and were 30 years of age or older. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
