Seymour's thoughts were a bit more articulated than that. A tax on land wouldn't need to be a blunt instrument. You'd be allowed to own land tax-free up to a point, determined by the economic potential of that land. A hundred acres of fertile lowland farmland might have as much "value" in that regard as thousands of acres of Scottish upland. I agree about rewilding, but land that has been abused for centuries via deforestation and overgrazing won't go back to its pristine state without a lot of financial input. Can't see that happening without massive financial incentives...

And for chrissake let's stop people shooting at wild animals for the fun of it.
