Légende
Banner of the Women's Tax Resistance League, 1910. Hampden was imprisoned for his oppostion to the loan King Charles I authorised without parliamentary sanction. He also refused to pay 'Ship Money', a tax for support of the Royal Navy. The attempts to imprison him and others for this offence led to the English Civil War. He provided a role model for the Women's Tax Resistance League whose slogan was 'No Vote, No Tax'. The suffragettes' campaign to gain the vote for women saw many women imprisoned and force-fed. They finally won the vote in 1928.
