In 1832 the Great Reform Act was passed. It gave more people the right to vote and made elections fairer. Although working people had wanted the vote, the Great Reform Act did not give it to them. It did extend the right to vote to some middle class men. After 1885 many working-class men were also given the vote after a series of reforms. From 1918 all adult males and all women over 30 could vote and from 1928 all men and women over 21. This was the result of campaigning by women in the suffragette movement who demanded that women have the vote.
