Hi all,

I'm not sure about the exact plot (or it's velidity for that matter), but their was an attempt on the life of then British Prime Minister, Herbert Asquith, by a minority of the Suffragette movement. Asquith was aposed to giving women the right to vote, making him a targgit.

So, what would have happened, had the attempt been successful? Who would have replaced Asquith as PM? In OTL Lloyd-George was already a high-profile member of the cabinet, but perhaps it's too early for him. Could Edward Gray get the job? Or would it be someone else?

Is there a people's budget ITTL?

How's the run-up to World War I affected by Asquith's obvious absence from the scene?

and what happens to the Suffraagette movement?

Let's discuss...
