    16 million voted to stay in the EU.

    You’ve lost 10 million supporters, then <laugh>

    That ship has sailed mate. I’d just forget it, we ain’t going back.

    So why you taking any notice of that shhite, you need to take your head out the rabbit holes instead of coming across like a snidy kunt. This is the problem with these discussions you bring the vindictiveness here. Fook off to GC if you can't convo without being a prick.

    Yeah, they’ve been pushed out for a while and they play such a crucial role in our society and for our economy.

    I’ve come to know a farmer in my village and he’s genuinely devastated by this. The family have owned the farm for 140 years. He’ll be the last owner. He can’t pass it on to his lads because they’ve not got the money to pay the bill. It’ll be gone. Probably to a mega corporation and all my local food will now come sprayed with all sorts of unhealthy ****e.

    He can’t just liquidate some of his assets to pay the bill. That would be machinery and land. Everything you need to actually farm.

    that was just the silly people who signed a petition. I accepted it pal, was a democratic vote.

    same with the GE. Can’t be doing this **** every time something goes the opposite way of what you wanted.

    Yeah that's all I ever concern myself with is the smaller farmers, it's always the way I've wanted it to be, anything we can produce do it locally and without the slave labour that occurred while in the EU. Lorry drivers and farmhands paid less than the minimum wage and abused - it was an absolute pisstake, and because it kept prices down, no one cared about them, there were no unions protecting them.

    Doubt it will come to much mate. I wouldn't really want her moved from her post, I can't be arsed with these muscial chairs like we saw with the Tories, it don't help the country, she knows her job I would prefer her to stay in it. I think if you keep someone in their role you can hold them to better accountability.

    Contrary to what the billionaire who owns your preferred media company is telling you, that's exactly who Labour have gone after. Most working farmers won't be affected at all, as the tax doesn't kick in until the estate is valued at more then 3 million. So if a 'poor' farmer has an estate valued at 3.5 million, they'll only be taxed on the .5, if their estate is valued at 2.5, they won't be taxed at all, but the Dysons And Clarksons will get hit with the tax bill they thought they had evaded.

    Most people in the UK aren’t cash rich. Their wealth, like the farmers, come from assets such as home ownership. That won’t stop the government from taking a large slice of that wealth as inheritance tax. I struggle to understand why farmers should be treated any differently. They’ve got a good deal in my book. Only being liable above £3M and then at 20%.
