		The Reform Club took its name and reason for existence from a piece of legislation that caused an upheaval in British society, the Reform Bill of 1832.
		Club founders in 1831 were supporters of the bill, liberal members of Parliament—including Whigs, Radicals, and Chartists—who had been denied admission to the conservative Brooks Club.
		The Reform Club overlooked her class origins but did not her anti-Semitism, when she invited to the club the notorious Holocaust denier David Irving, who had lost a two million pound court judgment; she also called Judaism “a creed of domination and racial superiority." Although Irving lost his case, Lady Renouf did not hers.

	Reform Club - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The new club, for members of both Houses of Parliament, was meant to be a centre for the radical ideas which that bill represented; a bastion of liberal and progressive thought that became closely associated with the Liberal Party, which had largely succeeded the Whigs by the middle of the 19th century.
		Brooks's Club, the headquarters of the old Whig aristocracy, was not prepared to open its doors to a flood of new men, so preliminary meetings were held in Ellice's house to plan a much larger club, which would promote "the social intercourse of the reformers of the United Kingdom".
		With the decline of the Liberal Party in the mid-20th century, the club increasingly drew its membership from civil servants in the Treasury, as a counterpart to the neighbouring Travellers Club, which became synonymous with Foreign Office officials.

	Club for Growth, Please Reconsider \| Redstate
		The Club is scoring a NO vote on the lobbying reform bill as a pro-economic growth vote because of the anti-free speech 527 bill that the House passed a few weeks ago.

		When the “rules,” whether written or tacit, are broken, the club leaders discuss and instate punishments on the offending members, explained Freeman, who saw firsthand the inner workings of a press club.
		Defenders of the press club, namely the NSK, purport that the system ensures access to valuable information and accurate reporting, and stand by their belief that the news media should use the club as a means of pressuring institutions to disclose information, as stated in the guidelines.

	Hampden Clubs
		One of these clubs was established in 1816, at the small town of Middleton, near Manchester; and I, having been instrumental in its formation, a tolerable reader also, and rather expert writer, was chosen secretary.
		The club prospered, the number of men increased, the funds raised by contributions of a penny a week became more than sufficient for all out-goings, and taking a bold step, we soon rented a chapel which had been given up by a society of Kilhamite Methodists.
		Among the persons taken into custody, under the suspension of the habeas corpus act, was the weaver poet, Samuel Bamford, who was apprehended and handcuffed at Middleton, by Nadin, the deputy-constable of Manchester, and six or eight police officers, all of whom were well armed with staves, pistols and blunderbusses.

		The Devonshire Club was established in 1874 at 50 St James's Street.
		The major Liberal club of the day was the Reform Club, but in the wake of the 1868 Reform Act's extension of the franchise, the waiting list for membership from the larger electorate grew to such an extent that a new club was formed to accommodate these new Liberal voters.
		The original intention was to call it the 'Junior Reform Club', along the model of the Junior Carlton Club, but complaints from the Reform Club's members led it to being named the Devonshire, in honour of its first chairman, the Duke of Devonshire, who was from a long line of Liberals.

		The analysis of club enlargement decisions centers on a basic conflict of incentives: the club benefits more if an applicant takes a costly action, while the applicant desires membership at the smallest possible cost.
		Greece, for example, was admitted without having to institute reforms, while more advanced applicants, such as Poland and Hungary, were offered conditional admittance based on their meeting EU standards and implementing reforms.
		Overfunding can be avoided if the club engages in staged financing, which conditions the disbursement of funds on the implementation of reforms.
