Farmers' strike warning as thousands to join big 'tractor tax' protest

Thousands of farmers around the country are gathering in London for a massive rally against Labour’s so-called “tractor tax” on Tuesday morning. Inheritance tax changes have sparked fury across the farming industry with the Budget limiting the existing 100% relief for farms to only the first £1 million of combined agricultural and business property. The National Farmers’ Union says farms producing the country’s food will need to be broken up and sold as a result of the policy. A morning of protest in central London will begin with around 1,800 NFU members lobbying MPs at Westminster. Later, an estimated 20,000 people are expected to rally in Whitehall, with coach loads of farmers travelling from around the UK for the demonstration. Jeremy Clarkson is a among a number of celebrities expected to join the rally.
