The “growth plan” for Brexit was that it would “unleash” UK from the “shackles” of EU. And therein is the clue why there has been no growth. The plan was no more substantial than vivid words deployed in some newspaper column or political speech. Flimsy boosterish rhetoric, and nothing more.

I don’t really care about the inheritance tax woes of the mega rich. I care about fixing the NHS though.

Why did the UK Government agree to sell the ghost station to an oligarch already suspected of money laundering for the Russian underworld? Why did senior Conservative Party figures accept large donations from such a man? Why hasn’t there been a full official inquiry? bylinetimes.com/2020/02/25/u...

The multi-millionaire who bought farmland to avoid tax… And the man who decimated farming to progress his own career …are now the self-appointed saviours of farming On today’s pod we discuss how people have lost their damned minds. Listen on link below…

To be clear: It's £1m untaxed, plus £325k of standard tax free inheritance. You can double that if the farmer is married. So farmers can hand down £2.65m tax free, and their kids pay 20% on everything else. Tax on your job is 40% over £50k "Land owner" is not a job 🧵

The more I read and listen to what the wealthy have to say, the more I realise that they actually do believe that taxation doesn’t apply to them. #inheritancetax

40% of UK Farmland is owned by billionaires. Now you know why they are so angry it will be taxed.

Can someone please help me understand the ‘plight’ of a farmer who isn’t earning enough money but isn’t selling his £million farm either! 🤷‍♂️ I think some are getting confused with #brexit impacts. #farming #inheritancetax #farmersprotest
