On this day, 17 August 1918, women workers at Willesden bus garage started a wildcat strike for a pay increase and equal pay with men. They were immediately joined by women at Hackney, Holloway, Archway and Acton depots or garages before spreading even further afield. This is a history of the dispute: https://libcom.org/history/london-transport-women-workers-strike-1918 https://www.facebook.com/workingclasshistory/photos/a.296224173896073/1189815604536921/?type=3
