save britain's family farms

Somerset farmer Cameron Kinch broke down in tears on the show earlier this year when after revealing he would use potential winnings to pay an IHT bill. He said Government should now go one step further in doubling the new £2.5m threshold before April next year

Could the Government's decision to raise the Inheritance Tax threshold be the start of a Labour reset with the countryside?

Efra Committee Chair Alistair Carmichael has praised the spirit, endurance, and resilience of farmers in securing IHT changes, but he has berated the Government for not acting on the industry’s concerns sooner

Conservative Party Leader Kemi Badenoch has urged the Government to go even further in reducing the impact of Inheritance Tax changes on family farms. "You do not punish people who do the right thing, work the land, and keep the country going," Ms Badenoch says

More than a year's worth of campaigning to save Britain's family farms could finally have paid off, but is there still more room for manoeuvre on Inheritance Tax reforms?

NFU president Tom Bradshaw writes on the importance of Labour MPs who abstained on a vote to limit APR and BPR, and why the Prime Minister should do the right thing by protecting elderly and terminally ill farmers from cruel and inhumane Inheritance Tax changes

The farmers, both over 90 years-old, said Inheritance Tax changes could lead to their farm business being split up and sold, leaving them trapped in an unfair system. They asked the Prime Minister what date they need to die to avoid tax reforms

It comes after the release of Baroness Batters’ Farming Profitability Review said nearly all the responses to this review have cited Inheritance Tax as the single biggest issue

The Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer does not seem to like farming, but he does seem to like digging rather large holes for himself

Labour MP Cat Smith said the Prime Minister needs to think again and reflect on a policy which is leading to farmers feeling like they need to speed up their deaths before tax changes come into force in April
