British Farmers Rally Against Inheritance Tax Hike

British farmers gathered at Parliament to protest a new inheritance tax policy set to impact struggling family farms. This change eliminates a tax break on agricultural properties, potentially affecting more than 60% of working farms. Farmers argue this will harm British food security.

Hundreds of British farmers protested a rise in inheritance tax outside Parliament on Tuesday, expressing frustration at policy changes they say threaten family-run farms.

The protest featured children on toy tractors leading the march and speeches from notable figures, including celebrity farmer Jeremy Clarkson.

Farmers argue the tax change comes at a time of economic instability and climate challenges, risking the future of British food security and agriculture.
