The 19th century mansion's gilt-edged halls were decorated with photographs of surging warships, casemates and sailors peering at radar screens. Outside, a distant military band was parping something martial. Inside, the talk was of 'the fight-tonight requirement' and 'killing the King's enemies when the moment arises'. When not if. It all felt a bit like the start of one of Anthony Powell's wartime novels in A Dance To The Music Of Time. Ambling up the elegant staircase amid a throng of men, I realised I was the only one not wearing gold braid and aiguillettes. A chap feels naked at such times.
STEPHEN POLLARD reveals the breathtaking arrogance of NatWest chairman and serial failure Sir Howard Davies, who epitomises so much of what's wrong with the British Establishment

STEPHEN POLLARD: Kenneth Widmerpool, one of Anthony Powell's classic series of books, is an imaginative teen. Despite a career marred by humiliating failures, Widmerpool's ascension from one leading role to another is unstoppable, owing to his unshakeable self-confidence and his ability to mingle with the Organization as if to the manner in which he came from one of the earliest roles. Of course, Widmerpool is fictional, but Britain has more than 100 percent of real-life Widmerpools, whose soaring careers appear to have no connection to any discernible ability and who prosper despite the fact that any solid foundation could lead to the destruction of any remaining image. Which brings us to NatWest Group's chairman. Sir Howard (pictured) has worked in industry, in the City, and public life in general, holding some of the most coveted positions on offer.

The decision was taken without consultation or a referendum, which has enraged the gentlemen of Pratt's. Rather, they were informed by letter and email that the committee had 'unanimously agreed to change the club's customs to include women as members.' What came after if that weren't shock enough. Members were advised that the changes would take place 'with immediate effect.' There will be no appeal, it seems. So how has this news gone down with a membership drawn from the Brigade of Guards, Tory grandees and the aristocracy?
