Return of the Wilderness to the UK?

RE: Return of the Wilderness to the UK?
Ahhh... but will any of this actually mean that the British Countryside becomes a "Wilderness", or is it just unmanaged land??

To me for it to be a Wilderness it needs to be a large expanse of uninhabited, wild, hostile terrain, maybe places like Dartmoor/Exmoor/Peak District/Brecon Beacons/Black Mountains/Snowdonia etc etc could become Wilderness but probably not the Norfolk Broads or the whole of central England?????

If you look back in history, there is no recent evidence of the UK being a Wilderness, it certainly wasn't during Tudor or medieval Times, or any other period of history that I am aware of, so why would it happen after a future event??

And as Mo say's there is a good chance large numbers of trees will simply disappear and be used for fuel (and other things), and as for wildlife, deer for example could potentially be hunted to extinction??
