AT LEAST THE PANKHURSTS ARE STILL FIGHTING THE GOOD FIGHT!

Emmeline Pankhurst and her 23-year-old great-great granddaughter, Laura Pankhurst.

EMMELINE PANKHURST is probably the most famous suffragette of all. Alongside her daughter Christabel, she led the movement to victory.

Her descendant Laura has stayed true to the Pankhurst path. A Cambridge law graduate, she and her mother Helen (right) — a women’s rights and international development activist — were advisers to the 2015 film Suffragette, in which Meryl Streep played their ancestor, and themselves had small parts in it.

Laura is a feminist and a trainee human rights lawyer.
