National League for Opposing Woman Suffrage

The National League for Opposing Woman Suffrage was founded in London in December 1910 to oppose the extension of the voting franchise to women in the United Kingdom.

Its first president was Lord Cromer, and its executive committee consisted of seven men and seven women.

In 1912 the first Welsh branch opened in Bangor, following an upsurge in militant action in the country.

[1] The organisation and the Anti-Suffrage Review both ceased to exist following the passage of the Representation of the People Act 1918 which enfranchised some women over the age of 30.
