The charity I work for, People Need Nature, has published its latest report, investigating the tax system and how it affects farmland. Miles King, who wrote the report, summarises it below. NGO People Need Nature, investigated this tax system and its implications. Lesser known is that these landowners (and farmers) profit further from a series of, sometimes bizarre, tax breaks. Shrubsole’s book revealed that 50% of England is owned by 25,000 landowners.

A recent book published by Guy Shrubsole “Who Owns England?” as well as a report delivered to the UK Labour Party have thrust the inequality of UK land ownership into the public eye.
