Divorce Law: Should it be easier to split?

Описание: The case of Tini Owens and her husband Hugh have put divorce laws in England and Wales under closer scrutiny. The Supreme Court recently upheld rulings by a family court and the court of appeal that Mrs Owens, must stay married to her husband, despite her saying the relationship had broken down. Campaigners for a ‘no fault’ divorce system, argue it’s an example of why divorce law in England and Wales is outdated and needs to change. Are the rules too strict?

Joining us at the Roundtable is Brett Frankle, a family and divorce lawyer; Thomas Pascoe is the campaign director at Coalition for Marriage; Adrianna Irvine, is a psychotherapist specialising in relationships and mental health; and Emin Orgev, is a lawyer and member of family law group Resolution.
