That is what it is to be an ancestral landowner. As the world becomes increasingly unstable, it feels important that these ideas of England are preserved for the safety and security of the future of our country...

According to her plan, with Tewkesbury dead, his uncle will take the seat in the house of lords and cast his vote against the bill.
