The entire history of the women’s suffrage campaign - 1866 to 1928 - suffragists and suffragettes - from petitions to bombings - is set out v succinctly in my new book The British Women’s Suffrage Campaign in 100 Objects, published @bloomsburyhist.bsky.social 23 July. No excuse not know this history

I find it extraordinary and truly infuriating that the judges could say this.
How can radical histories be so completely misunderstood, generation after generation, even by - or especially by - those in positions of power?

Court of Appeal judges here demonstrate complete ignorance of the reality of the suffrage movement.
Far from operating transparently the militant suffragettes covertly ran destructive arson and bombing campaigns that harmed both property and people.
Learn some history before quoting it fgs.
