On campaign. This page from English Heritage by historians Andrew Roberts and Lisa Berry-Waite recounts the life of one of the early women political campaigners, Mary Middleton, who sought to be elected in 1924. Her story reveals how the pre-war period and the First World War created new opportunities for women politicians but also the challenges they faced.
