bottom line is you might not like it or agree with it - but it is perfeclty legal and acceptable to gain title (and hence ownership) of land or property that is not checked or maintained.
You're using rare circumstances to justify the thieving actions of scumbags who take advantage in entirely different circumstances.

Do stop it...
sorry but you dont know what your talking about.

as i said before the right to own land is a trust, and if you allow your property to fall into abandonment or dont both checking on it then your have not honoured that trust.
Do you mean you don't know what you're talking about?

Yes I do...suggest you read my post again.

I said the scrotes are using your scenario as an excuse to impose their thieving ways in entirely different circumstances.

Supposing there are circumstances where someone dies and there are no next of kin, or simply abandons a house, should it just stand empty for ever? If they make all reasonable attempts to contact the owner and can't, and no one is in the house for years on end, why shouldn't someone move in?

Anyway, it won't stand empty for ever. The local council will probably grab it for one of their stupid schemes and move a bunch of real theiving dossers in there who will be a lot worse than someone who actually wants to live there long term and own the property themselves.

its hardly thieving.
it takes a minimum of 10 years before an application can be made.

if someone allows their property to be invaded and lived in/used by someone else for 10 years without bothering to do anything about it then imo they deserve to lose it.
