Caption

Larking with the Girls, 1906. A cartoon featuring Prime Minister Asquith on the theme of women's suffrage. Herbert Henry Asquith (1852-1928), was a Liberal Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from 1908 to 1916. Although the majority of Liberal MPs were in favour of women's suffrage, Asquith remained a longtime opponent of it. Despite opposing women's suffrage he believed it was up to the House of Commons to decide. Asquith was a key target amongst the suffragettes, the windows of 10 Downing Street were smashed in 1908 and in 1912. From The Tatler Volume 21 [The Tatler, London, 1906]
