    Mixed-sex civil partnerships to be legalised. Why not for siblings too?

        Why should siblings who've lived together for years have to pay estate duty when one dies? See Lord Lexden's bill earlier this year.

        grow up. We are not talking about legalising incest. Which, of course, might be your specialised area of interest.

        I think this kind of relationship between siblings has traditionally been discouraged. But, Sir Edward, each to his own - quite literally in this case. I wish you well in the difficult conversation with your wife.

        if you legit want the legal right to marry your brother i think your first priority should be to sit down and have a word with yourself. and maybe with your wife.
