add back 100% relief on genuine family farms, and to force the Govt into a proper impact assessment on this policy.
Whilst the Govt may not understand rural areas, my party and I will continue to stand up for our family farmers, and for the rural way of life.

So that's half a million in IHT. From enterprises that are traditionally asset-rich and cash poor.

Oh, David, it's not Ruth or Pip that's planning to steal your farm...

Milk prices; access to labour; the Scottish Budget; trade deals and, of course, the ongoing issues around the #FamilyFarmTax
So much for Harriet Cross MP and I to discuss with NFUS President Andrew Connon.
A modest tweak to Labour's disastrous #FamilyFarmTax but still they treat agriculture like a dripping roast. No farmers = no food!
A spot of Lib Dem heresy on the "Unfair Family Farm Tax". #FamilyFarmTax
"The ending of farmland's exemption from IHT will help deter super wealthy individuals from driving up prices to the point where real farmers can't afford to buy land. An initiative Private Eye has consistently supported."
"In 2023/4 the ‘Agriculture, forestry and fishing’ sector had the largest proportion of business numbers in rural areas (14% of all businesses for the area type) but only accounted for 8% of all employment." Think on, Lib Dem strategists. #FamilyFarmTax

🚨CAMPAIGN WIN: Government makes significant changes to the Family Farm Tax
I am delighted that after a year of hard campaigning, the Government has raised the Agricultural Property Relief (APR) and Business Property Relief (BPR) threshold from £1 million to £2.5 million.

That rumbling sound you can here is Lloyd George turning in his grave. #FamilyFarmTax
Before it rose for recess, Parliament voted on parts of the Budget, and I was pleased to vote against proposals that would see an unfair tax on family farms.

I oppose the Family Farm Tax, so why not try something different? #FamilyFarmTax #IHT #Cymru #Wales

Tydy Llywodraeth y DU heb gynnal asesiad o effaith newidiadau treth etifeddiaeth ar Gymru. Felly neithiwr, pleidleisiais yn erbyn treth barhaol Llafu ar ffermydd teuluol.
Mae parhau heb gynnal asesiad o’r effaith ar ein cymunedau yn annerbyniol.
#InheritanceTax #FamilyFarmTax
The UK Government has not conducted an assessment of the impact of inheritance tax changes on Wales. So last night, I voted against Labour’s continued family farm tax.
Pushing ahead without knowing the impact on our communities is not acceptable.
#InheritanceTax #FamilyFarmTax
Labour’s #FamilyFarmTax will devastate farms and food security. I’ve been meeting with farmers this morning and ever since the tax was announce.
I hope the #Chancellor listens and has the courage to U-turn on this damaging plan so we can protect the backbone of our rural economy.

In next week's Hokey Cokey budget - let's get the Wealth Tax in and the Farm Tax out.

The Govt's insistence on pushing through with the #FamilyFarmTax will do immense damage to communities across Tiverton and Minehead.
Ahead of the Budget, I will continue to press the Govt to change course, just as we did successfully with the U-turn on the Winter Fuel Payment.
#Somerset #Devon
Why are we pumping millions into #Freeports that are not obliged to provide the same employment protections for staff working in them, yet business owners can extract all profit & put nothing back in. We are paying companies to asset strip.
Yet the UK is being gaslit about the #FamilyFarmTax
✅ @Ben_Wilkinson_ is right: Reeves’ #FamilyFarmTax is needless, destructive grab that will devastate rural Britain.
✅ But under the Windsor Framework and EU TCA, NI and EU citizens may have a legal claim for a carve-out.
This means 👇
🚜 Labour’s devastating #FamilyFarmTax threatens the future of family farms and agricultural businesses across Scotland.
On #BackBritishFarmingDay, support our farmers and rural communities by telling Keir Starmer to scrap his damaging tax.

Farmer: “ I want the name of Angela Rayner’s tax advisor. I’d like to pay the wrong amount of inheritance“ 😂😂
Matt on why #AngelaRayner’s tax affairs are so politically toxic

IHT changes “violate Brexit deal”
Our legal challenge argues the govt’s plan to cap farm & business reliefs breaches the Windsor Framework + UK–EU TCA.
This fight could blow open the contradictions at the heart of Brexit. 🌋
#FamilyFarmTax
One of two Bloody Stupid ideas....Next they need to redress the stupid #FamilyFarmTax
Farming families are worried and rightly so. The Government’s proposed inheritance tax changes could devastate farms already under pressure. I’m backing calls to delay the plans and protect local agriculture.

“I’m very keen to have fair trade deals with anywhere in the world that we can trade with,”
“We want to have a good trade deal with the European Union. We want to have a good trade deal with the United States.
It was always obvious #FamilyFarmTax is a culture war to distract from USA trade deal.
