Right, so, visualisations of Galloway
1. About 5,000 years after the ice has melted, with widespread forest;
2. About 5,000 years after that, after 200 generations of human settlement.
This is pure simulation, not actual data; but the land it shows as flooded is either still lochs and wetlands, or land we know has historically been drained. The areas of settlement are plausible, and map onto historical settlements.

Visualisation of Galloway just before the start of human settlement. Valleys largely climax forest, hills largely boreal forest. Only the highest hilltops are moorland.

A great deal of flooded land, but it's in the right places.
Visualisation of Galloway at the height of the iron age. Substantial areas of settlement, but not on the lowest land. Still substantial wetlands. Lowland forests largely gone, upland forests remain.

OK, here's what I'm not getting about the budget debate. The richest decile is enormously richer than anyone else, AND there's been a substantial transfer of wealth from the middle to the richest quintile since 2008. But no one is talking about using redistributive taxes to rebalance either of these issues.
Why the hell not?
(graphs from

Graph showing share of total net family wealth by each net wealth decile since 2006-2008: GB. Wealth of the lowest three deciles has hardly changed over the period - which is unsurprising, they're all so flat broke no one will lend to them. The wealth of the middle four deciles has declined significantly, and that wealth has transferred to the highest two deciles.
Graph showing average net wealth per adult per family within each net wealth decile: GB, 2016-2018. The richest decile is about 250% as rich as the second richest decile, and each other decile is about 33% richer than the next poorer decile.
