The global war on farming continues, with UK farmers facing a new inheritance tax law introduced by Keir Starmer. This law imposes a 20% tax on any farm assets exceeding £1,000,000, affecting even small family farms, which often rely on their land and equipment for wealth. Many farmers struggle financially, and this tax could threaten their ability to pass on their farms to their children. The inheritance tax is viewed as a government overreach, undermining family farming and small businesses. Reports of tragic consequences, such as a farmer's suicide, highlight the severe impact of these policies. The aim appears to be the elimination of family farms, leading to state-controlled agriculture, which would limit consumer choice. There is hope that UK farmers will unite and resist this trend, similar to farmers in the Netherlands, Germany, and France.
