Duke of Westminster.

The new Duke has just inherited a £9 billion fortune upon the death of his father at a rather untimely age. Unfortunately, there is much wrong with this legacy. Because his elder siblings happen to be female, the common law applies in which the first male heir inherits. This is the law of primogeniture. Is this really a legitimate way of going about things? Feminism is of no interest to me - but simple fairness and transparent justice both are. This rank sexism must be dealt with in a better manner in the 21st Century.

Birdie.
