Farmers on the march

[noseall]

Biking from the boatyard is enraged by the idea that some multimillionaires might have to pay some tax.

Apart from that, he has nothing but hot air.

Standard.

 

[noseall]

By amazing coincidence, Fartage has also invested millions in tax avoidance.

Sorry, in farmland.

Oooops

Same thing.

Your false opinion

nope 3 links, one from the government / DEFRA and two from and agents.

 

[motorbiking]

Which rate suites you in terms of the tax you pay - your yearly figures or your whole life during which things might change?

The gov's interest is how much they get each year.

Could harm 70,000 farms. 70,000 / 500 = 140 years. Things in the UK haven't changed much since 1884 have they.

Its about having a noose around the neck of your business.

Nonsense and lies from the forum troll.

Regan's fierce attack adds no information, but he clearly resents the idea that some prosperous people might have to pay some tax.

His position is easy to understand, but does not provide justification to support his assumption. This does not make him right.

You seem to imagine that a farmer with a farm of nominal value £1M in somewhere like the south east is wealthy. The farmhouse and buildings alone may be a large part of this, He can't cash in the assets he needs to produce our food before passing them on to the next generation to do the same. Strange that the exemption has been in force for decades without a murmur. Now we have a WEF puppet marxist in charge it's time for some wealth redistribution, all spite and envy.

But its not wealth redistribution, its paying for potholes to be filled and patients to be operated on. Death and taxes all rolled into one.

He did that in another thread. Backfired spectacularly.

is a farm that unprofitable worth propping up just so that someone can have the lifestyle they feel they a born too ?

if it is that small and badly run that it can't pay the taxes that the rest of us have to pay, then I doubt it is contributing much towards our food security. May be the taxes would clear out a bit of dead wood and allow someone more enterprising to get a foot in the door of an idyllic countryside farming lifestyle.

Some still can't see how bad things got under the previous rabble.

There's some serious reorganising needed to even begin to make things better, let alone good

It begs the question of why every family firm isn't given the same help. Be it farming, plumbing, pie making or any other busines

I don't get how people see tax as some kind of inherent evil to be stamped out at all costs. We are taxed far less than most of europe.

I suspect much of the historical support given to farmers stems from the 'House of Lords' traditionally made up mostly of land owners. It would be always in their interest to keep farmers wealthy, the land owners would always take a share of their tenants success.

I wonder if our rulers had been heavily made up of Plumbers if we would of all still had lead pipes, laws to protect there use, family firms of plumbers passing their lead working skills to the next generation, all protected as it was their calling, their natural right to work with lead. I know that is nonsense, but then I do wonder if our over protection of farmers is also some sort of nonsense

Not sure 14 hour days 7 days a week, on call 24/7, out in all weathers knee deep in manure, coping with increasing red tape, worried about a call from the bank manager is much of a lifestyle. Perhaps they should all sell up and let the big boys turn the farms into solar or intensive, chemically enhanced industrial mega farms.
