THE membership list of the exclusive Garrick Club was today revealed for the first time — fuelling fresh criticism of its men-only membership policy.
Members include Deputy Prime Minister Oliver Dowden, the head of MI6 Richard Moore, and Simon Case who in his role as Cabinet Secretary is one of the country’s most senior civil servants.
The list, seen by the Guardian, also includes judges, barristers, MPs, academics, actors and senior figures in the arts. The Covent Garden club, which opened in 1831, has around 1,500 members and there have been several moves in recent years to lift the bar on women joining.
