Farmers need to stop talking nonsense
https://www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2024/11/19/farmers-need-to-stop-talking-nonsense/ Farmers are protesting about inheritance tax changes today. Most of them are quite wealthy or they would not be protesting. All of them are farming entirely voluntarily. They could sell up at current prices and live very well indeed doing nothing. Of all the people with a reason to gripe in this country they are about the last with a reasonable right to protest.
