Women's Labour League
The Women's Labour League was a pressure organisation, founded in London in 1906, to promote the political representation of women in parliament and local bodies.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url= http://www.co-op.ac.uk/politicalwomen/cs4.html )〕 The idea was first suggested by Mary MacPherson, a linguist and journalist who had connections with the Amalgamated Society of Railway Servants, and was taken up by several notable socialist women, including Margaret MacDonald, Marion Phillips and Margaret Bondfield.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url= http://archiveshub.ac.uk/data/gb394-wll )〕〔 〕 The League's inaugural conference was held in Leicester, with representatives of branches in London, Leicester, Preston and Hull. It was affiliated to the Labour Party.〔 Margaret MacDonald acted as the League's president,〔 〕 while both Margaret Bondfield and Marion Phillips served at times as its organising secretary.
Much of the League's campaigning effort was devoted to the issue of women's suffrage. When the Representation of the People Act 1918 gave a partial women's franchise, the League decided to disband as an independent organisation. It became the women's section of the Labour Party, which had reorganised under a new constitution that year.〔
The (Labour History Archive and Study Centre ) at the People's History Museum in Manchester holds the records of the Women's Labour League in their collection.
