Oh? I thought I did mention it, must’ve forgot wrote a while ago. Carey who played the protagonist did meet Pankhurst in the film while they were smuggling Pankhurst away from the police. Their encounter basically goes: more experienced suffragette introduces her, Pankhurst greets her and gives her praise or whatever, she gets driven off. Nothing was mentioned about class differences, basically the classes were men & women.

Sorry, missed that bit (still didn’t spot it on second reading), but thanks for confirming my bias. On other thing, does Carey Mulligan’s character ever meet with Emmeline Pankhurst, and if so, does this exchange occur?:
“Oh no, I don’t want plebs like you having the vote, dear. Just us nice middle class ladies.”

I did mention the fact that it was said that he did have the vote?

“Indeed, Mother Jones even argued that suffragists were naïve women who unwittingly acted as duplicitous agents of class warfare; she wrote in 1925 (after national suffrage had been achieved) that “the plutocrats have organized their women. They keep them busy with suffrage and prohibition and charity.”

I posted this under the mush job on this movie the Guardian posted:http://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/womens-blog/2016/mar/03/my-great-grandmother-emmeline-pankhurst-would-still-be-fighting-for-equality-today#comment-69852129

“Is this the same Emmeline Pankhurst who was the posh social parasite who went around handing out white feathers to working class teenagers who had no option of throwing them back in her face to hound then into a war her dainty, precious protected female ass would never be called on to fight? Equality my ass.”
