Members of the suffragette movement, led by Mrs Pankhurst, march through London to demonstrate to the Minister of Munitions their willingness to help in any war service.

Show full synopsis

Processions in favour of the war were often featured in Topical Budget, but this march is particularly notable for being led by the campaigner for women's suffrage, Mrs Pankhurst.

The call for women to be employed in war service would soon be answered, and scenes of women war workers became common in the newsreels.
