11: Daniel in the Lion's Den: Ruth Deech WAG or Worker? Women and Money



Description

Baroness Ruth Deech is best known as the former chair of the UK Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority - a controversial job for any public figure.

She comes to Free Thinking to argue that recent high profile divorce settlements and the growing trend in the courts equating cohabitation with marriage show that the law is out of touch with the real meanings of partnership.
