15.5 Exit Ticket Review

When it came my turn to speak, realizing that the average man is profoundly ignorant of the history of the women’s movement—because the press has never adequately or truthfully chronicled the movement—I told the jury, as briefly as I could, the story of the forty years’ peaceful agitation before my daughters and I resolved that we would give our lives to the work of getting the vote for women and that we should use whatever means of getting the vote that were necessary to success.

"We founded the Women's Social and Political Union in 1903,” I said. “Our first intention was to try and influence the particular political Party, which was then coming into power, to make this question of the enfranchisement of women their own question and to push it. It took some little time to convince us—and I need not weary you with the history of all that has happened—but it took some little time to convince us that that was no use, that we could not secure things in that
way. Then in 1905 we faced the hard

facts. We realized that there was a Press boycott against
Women’s Suffrage. Our speeches at public meetings were
not reported, our letters to the editors were not
published, even if we implored the editors; even the
things relating to Women’s Suffrage in Parliament were
not recorded. They said the subject was not of sufficient
public interest to be reported in the Press, and they were
not prepared to report it. Then with regard to the men
politicians in 1905, we realized how shadowy were the fine
phrases about democracy, about human equality, used by
the gentlemen who were then coming into power. They
meant to ignore the women—there was no doubt
whatever about that. For in the official documents coming
from the Liberal party on the eve of the 1905 election,
there were sentences like this: ‘What the country wants is
a simple measure of Manhood Suffrage.’ We knew
perfectly well that if there was to be franchise reform at
all, the Liberal party, which was then

coming into power, did not mean Votes for Women, in
spite of all the pledges of members; in spite of the fact
that a majority of the House of Commons, especially on
the Liberal side, were pledged to it—it did not mean that
they were going to put it into practice. And so we found
some way of forcing their attention to this question.

“Now I come to the facts with regard to militancy. We

realized that the plans we had in our minds would involve
great sacrifice on our part, that it might cost us all we had.
We were at that time a little organization, composed in
the main of working women, the wives and daughters of
working men. And my daughters and I took a leading part,
naturally, because we thought the thing out and, to a
certain extent, because we Pankhursts were of better
social position with the surname than most of our
members, and we felt a sense of responsibility.”

15.5 Exit Ticket Review

I went over the whole matter of our peaceful

endeavors and of the violence with which they were
invariably met; of our arrests and the farcical police court
trials, where the mere evidence of policemen’s
unsupported statements sent us to prison for long terms;
of the falsehoods told of us in the House of Commons by
responsible members of the Government—tales of women
scratching and biting policemen and using hatpins—and I
accused the Government of making these attacks against
women who were powerless to defend themselves
because they feared the women and desired to crush the
agitation represented by our organization.
