25 April 1906,

A group of suffragettes proclaimed the right to vote for women in the UK House of Commons. When Labour delegate Keir Hardie tabled a motion on women’s right to vote, representatives who were against started to discuss. The suffragettes who were watching at the Women's Gallery began screaming for justice, and when the police faced violently, they faced and ended up fighting with them.
