UPDATE: An information sheet Towards equality: the hidden value of property(PDF) is now available. There is inequality in land ownership and land is seen as a private resource rather than a collective one. Jocelyn Gaskell of Yealand Local Meeting is hoping to challenge this with a Land Value Tax campaign. She invites others to join her.
