"In 1976, excluding property, the bottom half of the UK population owned 12% of the marketable wealth; by 2003 that had fallen to just 1%.In the same period, the share enjoyed by the top 10% rose from 57% to 71%.
Even when property is included, the bottom half of the population still only owns just 7% of the country’s wealth."
Heartening isn't it!
