The suffragettes were arrested and tortured, sexually assaulted and beaten by the state. They *were* considered terrorists!

But that is exactly how the suffragettes operated. With a nationwide organisation of sleeper cells of arsonists and bombers.
I’m gratefully people have reached out and referenced my work today. I remain (I believe) the only academic expert on the terrorism of the suffragettes.

Palestine Action is not like the suffragettes, it’s true. Because one suffragette threw a hatchet at the prime minister, while another bombed the chancellor’s house.
