Mary Dejevsky is one of the country’s most respected commentators on Russia, the EU and the US, and has extensive experience as a foreign correspondent, including Washington, Paris and Moscow and was chief editorial writer on the Independent. She has a weekly column in the Independent and writes regularly for the Guardian and the Spectator with recent topics including Ukraine and Russia; European politics; geopolitical strategy and domestic UK issues et al. She often appears on radio and TV especially as an authority on Russia and its relationship with the West.
The Reform Club is a beautiful, historic venue which reminds us of Britain’s advance towards democracy in the 19th century. It was founded in 1836 for those who pledged support for the Great Reform Act of 1832, and evolved as their political headquarters before becoming the politically neutral place for critical thinking and intellectual discourse that it is today. We’re delighted, therefore, that the Spring Lunch will be held in the gold leafed Library, home to many of the Club’s finest books. The Library runs the entire length of the building and faces south overlooking Carlton Gardens and is described as “the most handsome room in the Club and is considered to be one of the finest interiors in London.” (source: www.reformclub.com/Private_Events/Club_Rooms). |
