Family law group Resolution's Nigel Shepherd says: "In this day and age, it is outrageous that Mrs Owens - or anybody - is forced to remain trapped in a marriage" which in effect means that he believes one party can terminate the marriage at will - a sort of mutual talaq whereby either party can get out of the "trap". Marriage would become a non-binding contract.

Judging by their comments their Lordships have been drinking far too much liberal Kool Aid. If people don't want the benefits and burdens of marriage, the solution is simple. Don't get married. But don't devalue the currency for the rest of us who take marriage seriously.
