Are there any sights where you can get samples of speeches made by Emmeline Pankhurst and Lord Curzon around 1908 - 1913?

The best source of speeches that I know is a CD called 'The Blaze of Day' You can see what's on it here on the Amazon site:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/B...0113503-1823018

I guess there's an oustide chance that you could borrow it from a Public Library.

I'm afraid I'm not having too much luck in finding actual speeches on the Internet, but I'll keep looking and ask around too. If I find anything I'l post again.

On this page of Mr Clare's excellent site on Votes for Women there are extracts from speeches made by Emmeline Pankhurst and Lord Curzon in 1912.
See here:

On the same page there is a link to extracts of speeches made during the 'Parliamentary Debate on the ‘Conciliation’ Bill, to enfranchise about 1 million Women voters, 28 March 1912' which may also be useful.
