A lot of people, like James Dyson buy up agricultural land in order to avoid tax. This change is partly to outlaw that behavour. Apparently only a small propotion of family farms will be affected by this. GB News are exagerating the effects for there own purposes.
Calling someone a nazi not so long ago was actually quite rare and a very extreme accusation to make towards anybody. Now it seems to be getting used as a generalised term of abuse during disagreements. If we were to round up all those mouthy automatons parrotting the nazi insults in the street like that and force them to sit down with pen and paper and no access to reference books or online and tell them to write a 1000 word essay on what nazism actually is I reckon they'd be chewing the end of their pens and staring into space unable to answer.
Get your non perishables in now and freeze any fresh you can manage.
I actually think I support them causing food shortages for Christmas. It's about time people who are this nation's backbone started being a lot less passive in this country and took to the streets with legitimate mass peaceful protest and disruption to force those in power to listen and listen well. This dangerous Starmer government has earned no goodwill whatsoever in the past 4 months and seems intent on taking deliberate aim at certain sections of society that are those it should be cherishing most.
Reeves saying farmers must pay for the NHS and so be taxed like this. Why have farmers got to pay for the NHS and be singled out like this for the extra funds she announced, that will only go into the NHS money black hole and not be noticed with improvements anyway.
I have mentioned this for several years now here. Once the government has taken the land they can then control the food and they will decide what is good for us.
Also, the government need farmland for solar farms so they can ration our electricity and houses for the thousands of migrants. They can not be deported as there is no information on them. I have no idea why people use airports when they can hop on a dinghy and a hitch-free taxi.
If there is mass famine then the government have depopulated the world. All the information is out there but people would rather be distracted by sports, Trump, Swiftie or the biggest trend on Netflix.
I wonder if Reeves has noticed a deficit because those who can afford to leave the country have now left or going to. One of my sisters is going to sell up after Christmas and move to Slovenia full time, if I could I would move to beautiful Latvia.
That's if the WEF is not penetrating the cabinets of course.
With the rest of us looking at 40% average inheritance tax rates (potentially) I think we should all buy vegan from small family farms until they stop whinging at their protected 20%; which will affect a tiny proportion of them anyway.
I loathe the very idea of inheritance tax but they are the last group who have any justification for causing others problems.
It will also just blow away though; lot of hype and wind.
