1914: Frances Parker Arrested
November 20, 2023
By AHNZ
Frances Parker (b.1875) was a well-to-do New Zealand woman who moved to England in 1896 to earn her degree at Cambridge. This was paid for by her famous uncle Lord Kitchener. Fanny grew up in Waitaki County but the family moved to Waimate District in her 20s which is where there is a monument to her in Knottingley Park. Parker was a terrorist and arrested for it but because her cause was Politically Correct (Woman’s Sufferage) she was awarded museum-worthy medals (Te Papa purchased one in 2016) and memorialised.
As a rule it is always the high-born children of wealthy and successful elites who turn to Victimhood Culture and Fanny was yet another one of those. In 1908 newspapers in New Zealand circulated a Suffragette Public Relations piece called Who Are The Suffragettes. It pointed out that Many of the Suffragettes, including Fanny, were “delicate and refined women of independent means, some of them women of considerable attainments,..” Instead of following the example of their productive parents and siblings these individuals go off the rails in the name of Social Justice. Ref. Hawera & Normanby Star (1908,) Papers Past
Essentially to Fanny’s back story is that she was of the Vogel Boomer generation. Parker came of age in the 1890s where women of her cohort were the Feminism 1.0 agents, the ‘Emancipated Women’ of the Rational Dress Movement, and the Suffragettes. As per the usual textbook definition of Vogel Boomers she was a cyclist and probably was part of one of the women’s bike gangs of the 1890s like the Atalantas. Ref. 1893: Atalanta’s Britches, AHNZ
Women gained (or re-gained depending on how you look at it) the right to vote in General Elections in 1893 so what was a radical like Fanny to do? Stop being a student radical and join the ranks of the adults? Start a family? Nope, she would keep being an activist well into her 40s. Fanny had her ratio decidendi to move ‘Home’ to England and take the fight for the women’s vote there.
In England, Parker joined up with the Pankhurst Feminists: Women’s Social and Political Union as an organiser. Even her friend noted that Fanny had an “exquisite madness.” Anna Stout, wife to our Chief Justice, came to join in during 1908 before the movement started going off the rails. She stayed for 3 years but must have seen that the movement was starting to turn crazy so she got the heck out in 1911. Parker stuck around. Ref. 1909: Anna Stout’s Reasons, AHNZ
The new, militant, and dying stage of Feminism 1.0 involved breaking windows, bombings, pepper-sprays, suicides, hunger strikes, and arson. Parker had been arrested an imprisoned more than once from 1908. In 1911, Fanny, assigned to Scotland, deliberately purchased a special train compartment next to Home Secretary (ie prisons and police minister) Winston Churchill so she could molest him. First Lord of the Admiralty Churchill couldn’t get any peace or rest and finally said “The only statement I will give you is go away, woman!” He seemed to be in an hysterical condition and to have become abusive, according to the Suffragette side of the story. Ashburton Guardian (1912,) Papers Past
Lefties like Fanny were never going to be the ones to win their purported cause because terrorism is not rewarded. The use of force makes a win-win outcome impossible. Since The State never loses that meant that the only possible outcome remaining was for the Pankhurst Terrorists to be defeated. The British Constitution could not possibly be changed by domestic terrorism and if it did then the gates would be open to all manner of such ‘direct democracy’ acts by anyone who wanted to change something and was prepared to harm people to do it.
Women’s Suffrage would not come to the UK until 1928. Frances died in 1924 without husband or children. Others succeeded where she had failed and for this the Court Historians call Fanny a ‘Trail Blazer’.
Burning Down The House
Fanny’s greatest act of terrorism was the attempted bombing of Burns’ Cottage in Alloway, Scotland. On bicycles (the usual vehicle of choice for Victimhood Culture agents, even today) both Parker and fellow Suffragette spinster Ethel Moorhead tried to destroy this landmark but were arrested in the act in late July, 1914. The women appear to have tried to avoid the law in the past by lying about their names. Fanny called herself ‘Janet’ but still she was nicked. “…two bombs, which bad been placed close to the walls of the cottage, but that one of the women made good her escape. The real name of the woman arrested is now stated to be Janet Parker. She is understood to be a niece of Lord Kitchener.” Ref. Banffshire Herald
Those who wish to smash the “Patriarchy” or mainstream order are ‘poor little rich girls’ and white. “Bourgeoisie Bitches,” as Germaine Greer colourfully put it. For example, this meme (left) of a wealthy girl with her “smash capitalism” sticker. Or, another (right) showing how expensive Greta Thunberg’s chairs are. In late 2022 Schools Strike For Climate activist Izzy Cook demanded cutting down air travel while admitting in her radio interview that she’d just recently flown home from holiday in Fiji.
Burns’ Cottage was even more of a landmark to British back in 1914 than it remains today. By making it a target for their terror plot the Suffragettes were striking at the heart of mainstream culture. To New Zealanders as well as Scots, the poetry of Robby Burns is central to our identity. We have many statues of Burns and is nephew was a founder of Dunedin. In 1911 our Attorney General attended the Burns anniversary celebration in Dunedin and gave a good talk in favor of Eugenics. Ref. 1911: Eugenics or Extinction, AHNZ
It’s worth remarking that activists, including the 2020s Just Stop Oil people with their orange paint and hand-glue, always go after the good art. Brandenburg Gate, The Last Supper, van Gogh, Vermeer, and Burns. They don’t disrupt the crappy modern art that they themselves create because, perhaps, they sense that nobody would really mind about that.
“At Alloway, Parker, from New Zealand, and Moorhead, ditched their bikes and carefully unwrapped their home made devices, both which had a fuse attached, from sheets of brown paper.” – Robert Burns: The suffragettes who tried to blow up the bard’s birthplace, Scotsman (2021)
“Parker came from a well off background and was a niece of Field-Marshal Lord Kitchener.” – Wiki
“In 1896, Frances left New Zealand to attend Cambridge University at the expense of her very well placed uncle, Lord Kitchener…Described by fellow suffragette and friend Ethel Moorhead as having ‘an exquisite madness – daring, joyous, vivid, strategic’, Frances was a perfect candidate for the WSPU who promoted ‘Deeds not Words’.” – Museum of New Zealand
“In prison, Frances Parker went on hunger strike and was subjected to force-feeding which involved acts of extreme violence and indecencies. Her health collapsed and she was released to a nursing home, from which she escaped. The medal is a testament to these actions, and was awarded to Parker while she was imprisoned.” – Press Release – Te Papa, Scoop (2016)
“History has been kind to the Suffragettes…widespread and sustained bombing campaign against targets throughout the entire country. These included the Bank of England and St Paul’s Cathedral in London. Theaters in Dublin and the Royal Observatory in Edenborough as well as other places as varied and disparate as the Liverpool Cotton Exchange, the Glasgow Botanic Gardens and a barracks in Leeds. Their bombings reached a climax in Summer of 1914 with explosions in Westminster Abbey in London, Rosslyn Chapel in Scotland, and a Cathedral in Ireland. The combination of high explosive bombs, incendiary devices, and letter bombs used by the Suffragettes provided the pattern for the IRA campaigns in the 1970s and 1980s.” – History Debunked, Youtube (2023)
After being thwarted and apprehended attempting to bomb Burns’ cottage, Fanny was just about done. I think that, at 39, she was getting too old now to behave like a silly activist kid but had been unable to find a new personality and move on as her peers had. In jail she resorted to a hunger strike and later wrote details about various attempts by prison staff to force-feed her by sticking things up her…Fanny is similar in this way to a more successful arsonist. Francis Shaw, Maori activist, burned down Rangiatea Church (est. 1851) in 1995 with a similar raionale to Parker. The idea was that the act of terrorism against a heritage symbol would force those with power to make the world a better place.
The subject, suffering from Oppositional Defiance Attachment, was not about to change the world. Rather, their method was to tantrum until someone else, someone with power, would do it for them. Their core belief is that some Alpha figure has some good in it and has the power to make the world just. It’s part of the myth cycle shown in Star Wars when Luke Skywalker says to Darth Vader “I know there’s still good in you!” The Fanny/Francis figure is sure that The Alpha cares that he is hurting and starving so that’s their leverage. The same mentality as a child throwing a tantrum to make a parent yield to their wants or needs but projected on The State. Ref. Slave Culture Going Hungry, NZB3
Fanny, now in mid-life, finally realised that First Wave Feminism was over. She nursed her sore bottom from the force-fed enemas and joined the Empire mainstream at last for the Great Wrong War. She rejoined the mainstream at last and was even awarded an OBE for the efforts; The criminal charges dropped! Apparently she had reformed herself and could not only come back to the society she rejected but be one of its decorated members due to her redeeming work and character. Really, the old Lefty had wealth and connections that other criminals would never be able to hope to access. And, she had a disgraced family that was willing and able to pull strings to wipe our their shame by wiping out Fanny’s for her.
