what about an underground bunker?

So basically the establishment have legislated to control the population once again, what happened to being a free country?

for a free cuntry we aren't allowed to actually do much

Of course you can build on your woodland, or else it ain't your woodland, now is it?
Screw bureaucrats. If you buy a piece of property from someone, it's yours.
"Nope, you have to leave it lie, not allowed to live there. You must maintain your dwelling in our cities."
Piss off.

I know wtf. I want to buy a woodland to build a cabin and escape London. You can't do jack all in this country.

Amen! on my woodland I want to build an old fashioned timber frame house and live there. though I won't clear a bunch of trees to build it, it would have some open areas. (this is the UK after all)

I'm building here on my place as well.
Legally I'm supposed to at least notify (some people have to ask permission) the local bureaucrats, but I don't. It's my place, even though I have to pay a yearly extortion demand (they call taxes) or be robbed of it.
Like you, I'm not cutting down trees. I'm planting more and more of them.

Xavier Spade presume you refuse all state welfare and NHS if you object to paying tax ?

Technically there is nothing stopping anyone doing it in the reverse. Buy a piece of farmland, build your log cabin and then plant your woodland around it. It may take awhile to establish but you and generations to come will get to enjoy it. Also think of the multitude of wildlife that will be able to have the security of a new home that would not have necessarily have been planted there but by the dreams of one person/family to live in a simple cabin in the woods

Matthew Desmond That's the UK for you, no offense. In America you can easily do this.
