(Spoilers — no).

The Shard, owned by Qatar, designed by an Italian, the idea of a British Entrepreneur. Tulips in a public park.

First of all, I want to say, I don’t like the question in the title. Really, I wanted to call it, ‘Why do people keep telling me foreign investors own all of London’.

But that seemed like a weird title. But I do keep being told one of the key reasons for high house prices in London, is that they — foreign investors — are the problem.
