EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Women in The Next Parliament" takes us back to the historic General Election of 1922. In a time when women's political participation was still a rarity, this image showcases the determination and courage of twenty-eight female candidates who accepted invitations to contest seats. Among them is Mrs Lina Scott Gatty, an Independent Liberal Candidate for Huntingdonshire. Her poised portrait captures her strength and conviction as she dons an elegant hat that adds a touch of sophistication to her appearance. The monochrome aesthetic enhances the gravity of the moment, transporting us to an era where progress towards gender equality was slowly gaining momentum. The photograph not only immortalizes these remarkable women but also serves as a reminder of their significant contributions in shaping history. Their presence in this male-dominated arena challenges societal norms and paves the way for future generations of female leaders. As we admire this snapshot from Central News' collection, we are reminded that progress often comes at great cost and sacrifice. This image encapsulates both hope and resilience, inspiring us to continue fighting for equal representation in politics today.
