Légende
The new London headquarters of the Women's Social and Political Union at Lincoln's Inn House, Kingsway, 1912. From the autumn of 1906 the WSPU's national headquarters had been at No 4 Clement's Inn, The Strand, which was destroyed in the London Blitz. The new building was described by the weekly newspaper Votes for Women as the headquarters of 'the greatest movement in the history of the world.' In 1912 Frederick and Emmeline Pethwick-Lawrence, the WSPU's business managers and editors of Votes for Women, expressed concern at the escalating militancy and were expelled from the WSPU.
