100 years ago today, British politics changed forever. Nancy Astor became the first woman to sit in the UK House of Commons, just one year after women became eligible to be MPs. Astor represented Plymouth Sutton from 1919 to 1945. Her welcome from the male MPs was not warm: "Sometimes I used to doubt whether it was a privilege. When I stood up and asked questions ... I used to be shouted at for five or ten minutes at a time." She spent almost two years as the only woman in the House of Commons.
