society doomed

[d000hg]

People shouldn't be considering marriage unless they're sure. Reasons like "we realised we weren't right for each other after all" aren't reason enough. Someone cheating on you, that's fair enough I think, but generally people just don't seem to take it seriously.

However yes the current rules do seem ludicrous, especially that Sir Paul is lucky under the current rules to pay ONLY 10s of £million!

People already stopped going into marriage. Making it safer for each side should at least encourage marriage more, and more importantly quickly resolve any issues that arise from divorce.

Current legislation that requires 50/50 split regardless if money were earned before marriage, and also unfair access to kids should be at the very least overturned pretty quickly, I don't know how the heck they arrived to position where some gold digger like Heather can get 25 mln after 4 years of marriage while her own earnings before that were like £30k pa - and in this case Paul is lucky not to give her 100-150 mln, that's just plainly wrong.

a very sensible suggestion - but would require family courts giving up their garvy train.

It's because of her "contribution" to the marriage.


Very expensive hooker IMO.

Do you think courts like dealing with this crap? Courts are not exactly writing laws - they have to follow whatever Parliament agreed on, if NL wanted to solve this problem they could have easily done that. They probably don't want to lose female votes though as fair split and prenups would not be exactly popular among them.
