| ‘Flappers as Anarchists: delegates who do not look as though they used bombs’ |
‘Anarchists are in conference at Newcastle-on-Tyne.

There are between thirty and forty of them, including three girls in the “flapper” stage. They dress like respectable Unionists or Liberals’ (Daily Mirror, 14 April 1914)
