Mollie Carberry is a suffragette! Well, sort of. Mollie and her
best friend Nora have been bravely fighting for women's rights -
even though no one else really knows about it. But when they hear a
big protest is being planned, they know they have to take part. If
only they didn't have to worry about Nora's terrible cousin, her
awful brother and her neighbour's very annoying dog ... An engaging
story about a strong and intelligent girl fighting for the right
for women to vote. WHEN DID IRISH WOMEN GET THE VOTE? The
Representation of the People Act 1918 became law on 6 February
1918. It gave the vote to virtually all men over 21, and women over
30 who met certain requirements. In November 1918 an act was passed
which enabled women to stand for parliament in the forthcoming
elections. The only woman to win a seat in parliament across
England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales in December 1918 was Constance
Markievicz, who was elected by the people of south Dublin but who
did not take her seat. In 1922, the new Irish Free State gave the
vote to all women over 21, finally giving Irish women the same
voting rights as Irish men.
