Summary at a Glance

Farmers to stage fresh tractor protest against inheritance tax changes Farmers will stage another tractor protest outside Parliament on Monday as they continue their campaign against changes to inheritance tax rules.

The tractor rally, organised by Save British Farming, comes as MPs debate an e-petition with more than 148,000 signatures calling to keep the current inheritance tax exemptions for working farms.

NFU President Tom Bradshaw said: “The strength of feeling around the proposed family farm tax is still incredibly high.

Labour has insisted it will not make a U-turn on its plans to introduce a 20% inheritance tax rate on farms worth more than £1 million.

Reform UK leader Nigel Farage is expected to address farmers making a pit stop on their way into London on Monday morning.
