The National League for Opposing Woman Suffrage was founded in

Lord Curzon and Lord Weardale as joint presidents. It continued the publication of the Anti-Suffrage Review produced originally by the Women's National Anti-Suffrage League. In 1912 the first Welsh branch opened in Bangor, following an upsurge in militant action in the country.[1]

The organisation and the Anti-Suffrage Review both ceased to exist following the passage of the Representation of the People Act 1918 which enfranchised some women over the age of 30.
