    The fundamental issue with farming is that the cost of farmland is no longer related to the income it can generate, but the inheritance tax it can save. Hopefully the result of this law change will mean farmland values will fall back to sensible levels so genuine farmers can once again buy farms and farm them (like 70s) and the rich city bankers will sell up at a big loss

      The government *should* just take the day or two of effort it would require to put together a policy that hits millionaire/billionaire tax dodgers and not actual farmers.
      A bunch of farmers have already outlined ways that could happen, as real farmers aren't interested in farmland being owned and not worked.
      Government should also step in to regulate supermarkets making farming unprofitable without huge subsidies.
      Don't think tackling big business and the actual rich fits with Reeves' agenda though.

      I would hope that he has, actually, and that he did so cheerfully. Not all peers have that ability, mind you, and that has always been kind of the point of aristocracy. You as the eighteenth-generation heir to a dukedom or an earldom with lands and an income attached, are expected to keep things productive so that the next generation can keep it going when you shuffle off this mortal coil. The problem for a lot of these toffs is that they either couldn't or that they chose their own personal pleasures above the long-term benefit to their holdings and the title. The 20th century brought a lot of this system to its knees, so now it's a very few, very savvy and perhaps a tad unethical "nobles" who have come to thrive under the new system. The great houses of Britain are either museums, government satellite offices or in the hands of very-untitled but very wealthy individual families who don't care about anything but their own immediate net worth.

The gentry were expected to join up and fight and, due to their educations and upbringings, they were invariably tasked to become officers. Have a little look at the casualty rates for officers on the Western Front in WWI. When their sons were killed in the war, the owners of many grand estates had no heirs and, upon their deaths, their assets were taken by the state. That's why so many of the country's grand country piles fell into ruin between 1920 and 1950, with many being destroyed by arson and subsequent demolition in the 50's and 60's.

    I live in a rural area. A neighbour has a salaried day job, but owns land and keeps a flock of sheep. Her SUV, diesel, garage bills, tyres, outdoor clothing, repairs to property, etc. are allclaimed against income tax. She uses her SUV about twice a year to haul a livestock Trailer, 99% of her driving is her daily commute to work. In addition, she receives all the payments, subsidies and grants that farmers can get. In my work, the head of department also had a family farm. He always asked for a receipt when buying his lunch in the canteen. I never saw anyone else do this. I wonder what that was about.
    In my experience, the self-employed people I know do the same thing regarding expenses, dining out, trips somewhere. It seems to me only the PAYE people and a minority of others actually pay the tax they should, they are the tax cow for all the rest who are 'at it'. The farmers are squealing because having had preferential treatment for years, they are aggrieved at being treated like everyone else. There's an awful lot of Range Rovers and Discovery 5's at the sheep shows I've been to, and in the Highland Show car park. Sure there are also poor farmers, but the agri barons are having a laugh, or were.

This is because the first £1m isn't taxed, and the next £1m is taxed at 20%, hence 200k. Not a pittance, but only 10% of the total land value.

      Farms below 200 acres would be unviable. An arable or livestock farm only becomes viable to support a family modestly at about 400-500 acres. A 400-500 acre farm with a house and £1m machinery would form an estate worth at least £5m. Even if there is a spouse exemption, we are talking about a £400k tax bill on a farm that probably makes £50k profit in an average year. In some years, a farm of this size would make a loss. You seem to understand how the tax would be applied but you have no idea about the farming economy and the values involved. There are farms under 200 acres that would be viable but these would be intensive systems (e.g. poultry) and are much rarer than extensive livestock and arable farms.

      A recent survey done by Science Direct, Journal of Rural Studies, showed that 60% of farmers voted for Brexit. This study was produced using survey techniques where the participants are completely anonymous and, therefore, are not inclined to give false replies to questions due to embarrassment or shame. Further, other data flattening techniques are employed to double check the validity of the data. So, as demographic groups, farmers and Fishermen voted in the highest national percentages to ruin Britain.

      ​@Minimmalmythicist It's an easy bogeyman but, council house privatisation really didn't reduce the supply of housing as they were sold to the people already living in them. The main issue is demand has shot up and new supply didn't keep up. E.g. the population grew, and needed more houses per person (marrying later & divorcing more often), whilst building of new houses dropped massively after WW2 (3% p/a in the 30s, 0.5% p/a today).

    • @PJH13

      @Minimmalmythicist They didn't compete with them though, because they also had the ability to block any private building (which they used, and still do). You can't be both the referee and a competitor.
      By blocking most housing projects not built by themselves, councils did increase their share of house building, but they killed the private building market so the actual number of houses built collapsed.
      In 1978 (before right to buy) the number of private houses was increasing by 0.6% p/a, in the 1930s it had been 2.5-3.0% p/a. That's the effect of planning reform favouring council housing.

    • @PJH13
      @PJH13 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      @Minimmalmythicist I gave a year because it's the last one before Thatcher. Happy to discuss literally any other year in the post-war era, as they all tell the same story. If you don't like 1978, private building in the 50s-70s averaged 0.8% p/a, in the interwar years that was 2% - that is the consequence of the 1947 planning act which gave local councils total control over the building of houses.
      To be clear, I'm not trying to defend right to buy as there are other critiques you could fairly level, I'm just saying it's not the cause of the problem you're focused on.
      The solution to a supply shortage caused by the govt. limiting supply is not to get the govt. even more involved in controlling supply. If we changed the laws to a rules-based zoning system, as opposed to a case-by-case council planning process, you would solve this problem.

    • @PJH13

      @Minimmalmythicist I've given you an average, that's not cherry picked its the entire period - what do you think is misleading about it? The entire period between the end of WW2 and the start of right to buy, saw private house building far lower than its pre-war levels.
      There's nothing sneaky about acknowledging the housing policy brought us council blocks that have since caused social and health issues, and built far fewer houses than before, was already disastrous, long before right to buy came along.

      He's not entirely wrong though, the value of land has been increasing at a rate higher than inflation since 1982, and especially from the mid 1990s, specifically because wealthy people have been buying up large tracks of farm land to avoid tax. I hope that once this policy gets put into practice that value of land will reduce because the rich don't see any advantage in buying it anymore in which case ordinary farms don't need to worry about IHT much.

      Well an estate agent makes a ton of money, and if his business fails no one is at threat, all estate agents could fail but we'd still find a way to buy and buy/sell houses. If farmers are forced to sell off their land to pay a massive inheritance tax bill and they then build properties on it or a put in a solar farm on that land then we all lose out because we need food to survive. Humans need food to survive, we need a home but don't really need estate agents - without farmers and without food we die. Surely there needs to be reasonable incentives for farmers to continue in a tough industry which makes little profit, and provide not only food but continue to be custodians of the countryside.

      Perhaps the government would do well to only apply the inheritance tax to first generation land owners with assets valued over £3m or, as Clarkson himself has suggested, those whose primary income source doesn't come from farming? Clarkson would fit both of those requirements. He accepts that he should pay his fair share because he knows that he is not a typical family farmer and that he has enough cash to survive irrespective of how much profit his farm generates. It's to his credit that he is standing up for the farming community and being honest about the struggles they face, he could quite easily have sat back and said 'I'm alright, Jack, so F the rest of you', like Vinny Jones and James Dyson have. A friend of mine who runs an agricultural machinery repair and maintenance business said that by creating 'Clarkson's Farm', Jeremy Clarkson 'has done more to highlight the struggles faced by the British farming community than anyone else in the last fifty years'.

He was incoherent and blinkered, and JoB did what he will always do, and played out rope for the guy to hang himself. These people shouldn't call, but if they must call, they should come on with a narrow point in mind that they stick to. What was the point of asking JoB if he knew the price of arable land? Why didn't he stick to his point that if you or I inherit, our home isn't on the line. Not that that is true most of the time, with most farms;and in the UK owned by the Crown and agribusiness.

When he asks him to sell his land and the farmer rightly says who will buy it when the land is demarcated for food production and farmers , who have the farms for generations, will sell to avoid the inheritance tax. It’s an absolutely bonkers labour policy. Farmers don’t drive range rovers on £50k revenue a year before they account costs. They can’t. Watch clarksons farm and the £100 profit per year then you’ll get an idea how tough farming is. It’s about people making our food and being custodians of the countryside. They don’t realise the value of the land and their are strict tenancies on who the land can be passed too

    Here are the facts.

    2) Land prices have increased because rich people faking farming to enjoy the tax loop hole. Land prices will drop as they sell and farmers can buy at better uninflated rates and do what they enjoy.
    3) Payed over time 10 years interest free time to pay it... INTEREST FREE !!!
    4) On the Subject of Agri Equipment nearly all of the assets used in a working farm will attract either agricultural property relief (“APR”) or business property relief (“BPR”) at 100 per cent. This means that no IHT is payable at all on the transfer of these assets.
    5) According to current tax information about 500 estates are actually affect a year out of 209,000 farm holdings as of 2023.
    6) Affected only when the IHT is applied.. This not something that's constantly happening to any 1 individual all the time and can already be planned for and avoided...

    Generally, when a house is left to family members, it is sold and the cash realised and therefore taxed.
    When a farm is left, Generally the descendants / beneficiary continues to work the farm and the cash is not realised. No one is made wealthier (except on paper).
    If this tax must be brought in, then it should be payable, only if the farm is sold, say within ten years.
    That way, the true farming families will be able to continue producing food for our country.
    Those using the farm tax as a loophole would have to pay the tax in order to realise the cash.
    That would seem fair to me.

      If e.g. James Dyson leaves his land to a young relative (grandchild or great grandchild) then 10 years isn't that long to wait to sell and avoid inheritance duty. How would you differentiate between those people (Dyson, Clarkson etc.) who have bought land for the avoidance of inheritance duty and working farmers? I have saved for 30+ years for my pension, so 10 years doesn't seem that long.
