Last weekend, I joined Streatham and Brixton Chess Club at Streatham Library to kick off a tournament marking the club’s 150th anniversary. The competition brought together people from across London – including two of my newest young constituents from Ukraine who are staying with a local family. Special thank you as well to club president Martin Smith for giving me a copy of his book, ‘Movers and Takers’. I’m looking forwards to reading up more on Streatham’s rich chess history!
