It does emphasise that it is a male-only club who is framing the national debate and who is making the decisions about who will have or have-not and have-what into the future. All able-bodied and of similar ethnicity too. Is it a club to cater for the opinion-forming and decision making needs of men? They should apply for a drinks licence. As the #VinB is usually an advocate for equality is there a chance that this is a deliberate strategy to highlight how homogenous is the group who form opinions and who make decisions for a diverse population? Regardless, it makes it very clear that this is the case. Well spotted and highlighted MP.
