- Robin Birley, owner of exclusive London private members’ clubs, is reportedly nearing a deal for a new Palm Beach venue.
- The new club, partly financed by the billionaire Reuben brothers, is intended to be a discreet rival to President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate.
- Birley’s London clubs are popular among Britain’s right-wing political establishment, and the new Palm Beach venue will welcome London club members.
- The venture comes amidst a trend of wealthy British individuals relocating to Florida, particularly Palm Beach, for reasons including wealth preservation.
- The design of the new club is being developed with top interior designers to give it a distinctly American flavour, potentially including an outdoor swimming pool.
