If you look closely when you visit the Palace of Westminster, you can still see traces of suffragette protests.
In 1909, Marjorie Hume and three other suffragettes locked themselves to the statues in St Stephen’s Hall in protest. In the process of removing them, the authorities damaged the spur on Viscount Falkland’s boot.
