As you know I don't subscribe to the inter-generational blame game that says boomers caused the UK's economic malaise; I see it as a class issue!

That said (and of course this remains a class issue, really), 43% of all housing equity is owned by the over-65s (not least as they've paid off their mortgages), and would like be higher if buy-to-let properties were included.

The Q. here is, of course: *which* over-65s?... and that *is* a class issue!
