The movement then grew more violent and mailboxes were burned; churches and country homes were burned; an attempt was made to bomb David Lloyd George's house because he refused to support women suffrage. Women carried bricks under their skirts to Oxford Street and a signal was given by blowing a whistle and the group of women threw the bricks through the windows and this tactic was named "the Argument of the Broken Pane."
