British homeowners are now in the majority - 70% of our homes are owner-occupied, a figure that's doubled in the last 50 years. Evan Davis explores the rise and rise of the home-owner and the growing influence of the property market on every aspect of life in Britain today.

He begins by asking why politicians of all parties now champion home ownership, and whether the rise in owner-occupation has made us a more conservative nation, a wealthier nation or a more divided nation.
