New Fabian Review interviews IDS

Divorced, divided but surviving: the royal family is more like us than we would like to believe, writes Dennis Macshane in his article, The Royal We.

 

 

"Ken's wrong. Ken's been wrong about this ever since he was born, I expect”, The Daily Telegraph picks up on IDS’s comments about Ken Clarke and tax breaks for married couples.

And Kitty Ussher looks at the left’s position on marriage, arguing for a focus on the relationships themselves rather than their structure.
