Who ordained that a few should have the land of Britain as a perquisite, who made 10,000 people owners of the soil and the rest of us trespassers in the land of our birth?

What It Means

This is a placeholder explanation generated by the low-overhead model. It interprets "Who ordained that a few should have the land of Britain as a perquisite, who made 10,000 people owners of the soil and the rest of us trespassers in the land of our birth?" in the context of "Speech in Newcastle (9 October 1909), quoted in The Times (11 October 1909), p. 6" to mean that wisdom is timeless.
