Why did women get the vote in 1918?
The pre-war campaign
The suffragettes and suffragists had made it a key political issue
There had been no pre-war campaign in France
Women did not get the vote despite working in factories and supporting the war effort
Changing attitudes of Politicians
Pre-war opponents could use the events of WW1 as a reason for changing their minds
All men would get the vote in 1918 - this gave them the opportunity to give some women the vote
In 1916, The Speaker's Conference was set up to come up with an acceptable solution
The role of women during WW1 was crucial
Nearly 1 million women were working in the munitions' factories by the end of WW1
They produced 80% of shells used by the army
They had to work long hours in dangerous conditions
The 'canary girls' - because TNT poisoning turned their skin yellow
The Women's Land Army
Replaced the Farm Labourers who went to war
This was vital in keeping Britain fed during the war
Serving in the military - women played a vital support role
The VAD - Nurses
Women's Army Auxiliary Corps
Women's Royal Navy Service
Women's Royal Air Force
1918 Representation of the People Act gave 8.4 million the vote
It gave women over the age of 30 who were a householder or married to a householder the vote
BUT
Many who worked during the war were under the age of 30 so didn't get the vote
22% of women over the age of 30 were disqualified from voting because they didn't own enough property
