    oh and just in case you forgot the rulings of arbitration courts are binding in law as long as they are not in contravention of the law just like they always have been .
    They've provided an example of male heirs getting double what the females received. That is acceptable to you? You want to see Women pressured by their insular social groups to accept 20% of what they would have gotten in a western court?

    I thought conservatives were the ones who wanted to subjugate women and impose arbitrary authority on everyone?

    Is that default law? If a man dies without a will, does the eldest get everything? Not anymore.

    I don't necessarily disagree with cultural modules on top of a bare bones British legal system. However, I think it is an important discussion for the British electorate to have and that my listed concerns are legitimate

    We all pick and choose what values we hold dear enough to conserve. I'm the eldest son, but I prefer the law that suggests a clean and even break when it comes to free parent loot. I'm sure that my 4 siblings would appreciate that sentiment.
