#OnThisDay, 6 Feb 1918, the Representation of the People Act receives royal assent, allowing some women in the UK the right to vote in elections.
All men over 21 were able to vote for the first time, but only women over 30 who met some property requirements could join them at the ballot box.
Full enfranchisement came in 1928.
