re: Half of the UK is owned by 1%

That doesn't make sense to me either. I'm responsible for me and my family. Not someone else. Not the government. Me.

Do you have children?
Did they sprout from your loins?

That's not what I, or the article stated.

Go read the article and my posts and get back with me.

So, let’s be generous and say that 5% of the wealthiest in the UK own everything. Is that ok?

It's inaccurate but whatever. Yes, I'm fine with it

It isn’t inaccurate

That's STILL not anywhere close to what the article, YOU POSTED, even states.

SMH

Have I tested you?

You could also frame the answer differently. I’m sure a large portion own the other 50%

So let’s just estimate that 70% of the people own 50% of the land and the other 29% don’t own any land by choice (they rent or live with family/friends)

Doesn’t sound as bad right? It’s just click bait socialist propaganda

They don’t :

Who owns the “green and pleasant land” of the English countryside can be a well-kept secret, in part because a large segment of it does not even figure in public records. Government efforts to make a public accounting of land ownership date to the 19th century, but according to the Land Registry, about 15 percent of the country’s area, most of it rural, is still unrecorded.

“Much of the land owned by the Crown, the aristocracy, and the Church has not been registered, because it has never been sold, which is one of the main triggers for compulsory registration,” the registry, which covers England and Wales, says on its website.
