Inheritance Tax is a morally repugnant levy that should not exist at all. Plenty of civilised countries manage without it.

Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back.

Meanwhile, us mere mortals have to pay inheritance tax of 40% on property value over £325,000.
Yet farmers will be allowed to£5 million.
Something doesn’t sit right.

OK I'm being deadly serious here. If you think that is fact and you think it may impact you, see a solicitor now because its not and it won't with the proper advice.

Inheritance tax has been around for a very long time and the current version was introduced by Thatcher in 1986. Should the government be giving some credit in taking a step back on the inheritance tax stance or do you think that they shouldn't make u-turns. Whatever suits your political bias is what will undoubtedly shape your answer.

Some would say it is the number of U-turns that will have the biggest impact on public opinion, rather than a particular case.

True.

Of course one option would be to buy a farm. Great way of escaping inheritance tax.

It is awful that, in my mind, he has correctly made this policy U turn it is giving the political vultures so much ammunition as he is looking even more indecisive and therefore untrustworthy. Some of them, including the employment rights bill have been pragmatic but it really is damned if you do and damned if you don't.
I'd walk away if I was him and say you are welcome to it

Are you saying a farming couple won’t get a IHT free hit of £5 million ?
It’s there in black and white.
Plus they will only pay 20% rather than 40% after that tax free £5 million.

That's part of the problem, idiots in Government thinking that everyone who owns a farm is on the make rather than understanding that 99 percent of family farms produce food on thin margins

You hate farmers don't you. I'd much rather target the likes of Amazon, Microsoft, and Apple who although not breaking any law ( as farmers) play the system costing HMRC billions of lost revenue .

No. I don’t hate farmers at all. Why would I ?
But I do think everyone should pay their fair share. Farmers included.
As for Amazon etc, yes, they should be hit up in the air and made to pay their taxes.
Why do ordinary working people have to make up for the tax dodgers?

And? he's put the value of the work farmers do on the map, he's brought farms together to produce and supply home grown products and he's practising that by buying a pub and using locally grown products to produce the meals they serve.

I like him and his programs, people don't like him because he says and speaks what he feels is the truth.

Compare him to Starmer and it's like comparing chalk and cheese,

The problem with taxing assets that most Socialists are simply too stupid to grasp is that to pay tax on an asset, in the vast majority of cases the asset has to be sold. This is the case for small family farms just as much as it is for Elon Musk.

Someone who inherits a farm worth, say, £5m, even at the reduced rate will have to find £1m for the tax bill. More tax than most of the people whining about "fair share" will pay in their entire lives.

A levy on the income if the farm is eventually sold? Maybe that would be workable. That would then be a profit on the inheritance. A straight inheritance tax? Financially idiotic policy.

People are too thick to.reise that a farm husband can get £2.5 million and yhe wife can get £2.5 million, so it's £5 million tax free.
The vast majority won't pay a penny in IHT if they sell their farms.
But it will stop the likes of tax dodgers like clarkson in the future.

Innit. The greedy, thieving Socialist mindset in action. Someone does well in life, so they should be punished for it. "I want what he's got".

For all their railing about "greed" and "fairness", there is nothing more avaricious than a leftie.
