How many farmers will actually be affected by the changes to inheritance tax? Dan Neidle does the math...

Watch the full interview here:

Listen to the episode here:

@DanNeidle He knows he's wrong, he's been corrected dozens of times, he's just playing his role as a member of Labour's NEC and election agent for Stella Creasy. It's completely partisan bullshit.

@DanNeidle Correct me if I am wrong but up until 1985 farmers did pay inheritance tax and farming did not disappear.

@DanNeidle I thought he hadn’t tweeted in a while.

@DanNeidle Lefties pontificating that they think the farmer protest is ‘blown out of proportion’ Could they be anymore out of touch with the working class, the backbone of this country?

@DanNeidle Asset rich isn't the same as financially rich. This is the politics of envy and I am fucking sick of it already and we have barely had 4 months of it.

@DanNeidle They still don't understand how farms work. Most full time farms need to be of a certain size to be viable, fall into a figure about the threshold. Also their assets they use to farm use up most of the reliefs.

@DanNeidle Good explanation of why the IHT tax change will impact a lot fewer people than is being made out. Even for “Real Farmers” there is a difference between a small family Farm, and a Duke owning rolling acres going back to the Middle Ages.
