No Vote, No Tax – Tax and the Suffrage Movement
6 videos • 69 views • by Association of Taxation Technicians This year marks the centenary of the passing of the Representation of the People Act 1918. This was the first Act which gave women the right to vote, provided that they were over 30 years old and met certain property qualifications. To celebrate this centenary, and to mark this year’s International Women’s Day, ATT Technical Officer Helen Thornley has given a number of presentations on her extensive research on the Women’s Tax Resistance League. The Association of Taxation Technicians is a charity and the leading professional body for those providing UK tax compliance services. We have over 8,500 members and Fellows, together with over 5,000 students. Members and Fellows use the practising title 'Taxation Technician' or 'Taxation Technician (Fellow)' respectively.
