@beatnikprof I suppose you could make the case that the grand old Reform Club is indirectly a monument to the Chartists. Even though their movement was crushed, the Reform Acts of ‘67 and ‘84 were based on several of their principles and, by 1918, all but one of their demands were met and enshrined in law. Naturally, none of the Chartists themselves would have been invited to dine at the club!
