Anneliese Dodds

LABOUR'S shadow women and equalities secretary said today she would not join a London all-male private members’ club which is considering admitting its first female members.

Anneliese Dodds argued the way to achieve equality was to have more women in positions of power and for men to help break down barriers.

The Garrick Club has come under fire over its membership list, which included the King, Deputy Prime Minister Oliver Dowden and Levelling Up Secretary Michael Gove.
