Quoting Mr Gordon Brown,Westminster cannot operate like some gentlemen's club.Mr Brown now owes me for a new monitor and keyboard to replace my tea-drenched and toast-strewn originals. Meanwhile, over at the Telegraph, Mr Andrew Roberts voices my sentiment that the problem is not that Westminster is a "gentleman's club", but that it doesn't have any bloody gentlemen in it.

Maybe he means like in American English, where "gentlemen's club" has for some reason started to mean a strip club. Could be he's found himself a Region 1 DVD player and has decided to start talking American. In that case, the Brit version of C-Span must be a whole lot more interesting than ours!
Phineas Fogg and Henry Higgins disapprove the addition of new members.
