 To the 'astonishment', of the guest, 'when the dinner took place, only the opposing speaker was given the opportunity to put her point of view. As a result, the person who contacted us tried to respond from the floor, arguing against what had been said. "Tony Gilland, who was chairing the event, then aided and abetted the audience into literally howling me down. Their howls when I tried to speak were astounding. A cross between a coven and a very nasty gang of teenagers."'<ref name="LW"/>
-According to Lobbywatch 'The only comparable experience the speaker had ever had was in a debate on violent pornography at a cult film theatre.' On that occasion "the audience had been dressed entirely in black leather - not one person was dressed in any other colour. They too howled at me and one man raised his arm and pointed it at me like a gun and shouted, 'Freedom is the barrel of a gun!' - and was cheered."<ref name="LW"/>

 One of those invited to the club to give a talk contacted Lobbywatch. 'The people at the dinner', the source said 'were mainly under 35 and reasonably well off - it was a GBP40 dinner.' The invitation had come from the Club's leading light, [[Tony Gilland]].
