Description
A round gold badge. At the top is a crown, the UK and English flags. Below in two blue curves surrounding a gold lion are the words: 'Junior Imperial and Constitutional League. For Empire'
This badge was created by the Junior Imperial and Constitutional League, a pro-Empire political movement in the 20th century. It was founded in 1906 by the Conservative Party, aiming to encourage young people to become involved in political activism and party politics.
Badges are an important way for political parties and their supporters to communicate their beliefs and values to others. This can help start conversations with friends or strangers which may encourage others to vote for the party.
