GB News: Inheritance tax: Farmer sets out movement's next steps as mass outcry falls on deaf ears
Farmers plan to intensify protests against inheritance tax changes targeting local MPs in early 2024. The anger stems from Labour's proposal to limit inheritance tax relief on agricultural assets over £1 million starting April 2026, which farmers argue could devastate their livelihoods.
Protests have already begun, with farmers driving tractors through cities to voice their concerns. Campaigner Kelly Seaton indicated that while actions will increase, they aim to avoid public disruption. Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer has stated there will be no reversal of the proposed changes.
