The Garrick Club needs women. But try telling that to the members with the locker-room bants

Only women can rid the club of the guardians of the Y-chromosome’s ‘we’ve always done it this way’ misogyny

Here’s a surprise: the Garrick Club is a really lovely place.

It’s full of lively and fascinating people. The staff are superb, the food is great, the wine list divine. The library is to die for (or in), we have the finest theatrical portraiture in the world, sumptuous sitting rooms and chic bedrooms a wallet’s throw from the Royal Opera House.
