Thousands of UK Farmers are descending on London to protest the proposed draconian inheritance tax, which farmers say will essentially deprive today’s farmers the ability to transfer their farms to their children.
The far-left Labour government is proposing an inheritance tax starting in April 2026 on agricultural assets worth more than one million pounds. The percentage would be set at 20 percent and would mean 2/3 of British family-owned farms would not be transferred to the next generation.

Farmers are protesting in the UK because the government believes they are entitled to the hard work of generational farmers for reasons that will never make sense.
According to the BBC:
Thousands of people have protested in London over changes to inheritance tax for farmers announced in the Budget.
From April 2026, inherited agricultural assets worth more than £1m, which were previously exempt, will be liable to the tax at 20% – half the usual inheritance tax rate.
