Solution

The correct option is D 1918
In 1918, the right to vote was granted to some women in England. In 1918 the Representation of the People Act was passed which allowed women over the age of 30 who met a property qualification to vote. Although 8.5 million women met this criteria, it was only about two-thirds of the total population of women in the UK.
