Christabel Pankhurst waving to the hunger strikers from a house overlooking Holloway Prison, 1909. Christabel Pankhurst (1880-1958) was one of the leaders of the British suffragette movement. Fourteen hunger strikers were arrested on the day that the original hunger striker, Mrs Wallace Dunlop (1864-1942) was released from prison. Arrested suffragettes went on hunger strike in protest at the government's refusal to treat them as political prisoners.
