I must disagree. This is about how easy it is to leave your fortune to someone not being maintained by you at the date of your death-testamentary freedom. The current position is a litigator's charter where anyone who's a bit poor and who hasn't seen their aged parent for ages can have a go and get a settlement out of the estate. And then the will writer will get sued for not securing a will in accordance with the testator's wishes.

Exactly the kind of case that should be looked at by the Supreme Court.
