COMMUNITY - Ownership
There are so many unanswered and searching questions about Community Ownership.
One of those questions is about the real ownership of land. Another is - would it be better if the community owned the land collectively? That is, the national community - or even, perhaps, if the worldwide community each had a single share in the world? Might such a change result in a better and fairer world?
We hope our curated selection of articles - presented here - will prove enlightening and thought-provoking.
WHOSE FARMS ARE THEY?
Swindon Council look like determining that farms it owns can be sold for development. Arguments against this are set to fail - despite concerns over food security. Does the land really belong to the people?

THIS IS FREE COMMON LAND
This is a good example to look at. ONE -Right to roam should remain! TWO - Do the People really own the Bathurst Estate? Surely the Lord didn't acquire it lawfully? He may have bought it - but lawfully?

IT'S A WALK IN THE PARK
The estate has been a free to roam countryside space for hundreds of years - and now there are charges Lord Bathurst is introducing. The thing is - lawfully, it's NOT his land - so he has no right to charge! Right?
