We are witnessing a Communist coup in Britain. A farm valued at £4 million (land, buildings and machinery) might return a profit of only 50-100k per annum. Some years, it will make a loss. The Labour government has just announced a 20% inheritance on the value of farms, which amounts to £800,000 payable (on a £4M farm) after the death of the farmer. His children will be unable to pay this astronomical sum of money, so they will have to sell the farm. But no one will want to buy the farm because of the future inheritance tax issue. What will happen? Friends of the government will buy it cheaply and convert it into a solar farm. After a couple of decades of useless energy production the land will be contaminated and can be re-zoned as a brownfield site and sold as building land. The government will be very happy. Lots of politicians will become very rich. Farmers will no longer exist and the average person will be unable to buy the expensive imported food British farmers once provided cheaply. I'm not sure people fully understand what is actually happening in England. If they did, there would be a million sturdy yeoman armed with pitchforks surrounding parliament next week.
