Tax due if parents hand on £3m house: £940k
Tax due if parents hand on a £3m farm: £0
A reminder of significant tax advantage to farmers vs everyone else AFTER these changes

[Farrukh @implausibleblog]

Mhairi Black, "I'm not understanding why there is so much heat around this" @MhairiBlack

"Is this is a case of farmers working their knuckles down to the bone, living on the breadline, that happen to be sitting on assets"

"Or is this like people like Jeremy Clarkson"

"Because if you're asking the general public who can't afford to pay their bills, who can't get a doctors appointment, who can't get a house, to feel sorry for millionaires like Clarkson, I just don't think how it's feasible"

[Kirstie Allsopp @KirstieMAllsopp]

So a whole load of farmers are taking a day off to come to London and protest against a new tax which will not impact them at all and only applies to “rich” farmers, so sweet of them. 🙄 #FarmersProtest

[Sebastian Salek @sebastiansalek]

Labour is hiking taxes on billionaires.

Don’t be distracted by the farmers protesting in Westminster. Inheritance tax on farmland means the super rich will pay their fair share.

Here’s who’s most affected:

[Jimmy @jdtlgr]

The man who made things a whole lot more difficult for farmers, now has the cheek to cosplay as a farmer, while claiming to be on their side.

Absolute charlatan.

[Claire 💙 @clairebubblepop]

Four young white teenagers killed two best friends with machetes in a case of mistaken identity. Not one right wing commentator is speaking about this, even though they say they want to end knife crime. Funny that. Where’s your outrage now aye?

What have Jeremy Clarkson, Piers Morgan & Nigel Farage got in common?

ALL went to private schools - NONE got into university. Don't mean Oxbridge, nothing. Not even a Polytechnic

And yet their witless drivel is treated with greater reverence than experts with PhDs

Baffling

2016: Nigel Farage, "Not only would we be better off outside the EU, we'd be a happier place"

2024: Nigel Farage, "The big picture is, we're in decline, we're getting poorer"

"We are in much deeper trouble than anybody on either front bench dares to admit.. The bigger our population becomes the poorer we are becoming"

"For a Labour party that couldn't define what a woman was, couldn't define what a working person was, well after today I'm pretty convinced they can't define what economic growth is"

"I've had plenty of jobs, we; ;apart from being in the European parliament which doesn't really count obviously" - Someone shouts out, "You took the money"

[Thomas Standfield @TStandfield1789]

Jeremy Hunt must be getting really desperate.
Now begs the cabinet secretary, Simon Case, to prevent the release of a review by the Office for Budget Responsibility into his spending plans.
If he hasn't lied to the OBR, there's nothing to worry about.

Charlotte Hawkins, "There are thousands of vacancies in the NHS.. Applications for nursing courses dropped by 40%.. You talk about demoralised staff.."

Wes Streeting, "It's not the new government which has demoralised staff, it's the last, Conservative, government"

CH, "What are you going to do, looking ahead?"

WS, "The Chancellor will prioritise the NHS in the budget"

CH, "How are you going to tackle the number of vacancies, over 125,000... And the nursing recruitment crisis?"

WS, "When the Chancellor came in she honoured the recommendations from the independent pay review bodies, which was the right thing to do"

"We are also involving nursing and others to shape the future of the NHS. What we're asking them is what can we do to make you stay and what can we do to make nursing a more attractive profession"

"What we're announcing in the budget I hope will build confidence and hope in the NHS which has been sorely lacking for some time"

Well said @wesstreeting 👏

A few suggestions,

➡️ Free education for nurses so they don't start in debt
➡️ Competitive pay so they aren't tempted to go abroad
➡️ Better work-life balance and working conditions

And actually, that's the same for doctors and everyone else in public sector 👍

Breaking: Robert Venables, the senior tax KC, is being prosecuted by HMRC for evading nine years' tax in his personal tax returns.

Can Britain afford a 6% increase in the minimum wage? With me in the studio to discuss this are an £91,000 a year Tory MP, a £250,000 a year journalist, and an investment banker who has just been given a bonus worth five times his already astronomical salary.

Oh fuck off, Yasmin.

Italy owns a UK rail franchise, China built our nuclear power stations, Canadian pensioners and Abu Dhabi own our water companies, India our steel industry and a Czech billionaire is buying Royal Mail. God forbid that England should have a German football manager.

Victoria Derbyshire, "So did you vote against those two National Insurance rises?"

Steve Baker, "In the end I voted with the Conservative government while I was a government minister"

VD, "It's easy to say this now you're out"

SB, "But Victoria I've been saying this since my maiden speech in 2010"

VD, "You voted for these tax rises, which now appears to show they were unsustainable"

SB, "We all know the tensions of being a party politician and a government minister, no one can really accuse me of not running rebellions against my own party. But there does come a point where you've got to show some discipline"

VD, "Or you could have resigned"

SB, "I could have done, but I had an important job to do which I'm proud of"

More pictures emerge of British PM meeting with pop stars.

[David__Osland @David__Osland]

Thatcher called bin Laden 'a freedom fighter', Mandela 'a terrorist', Pinochet 'a good friend' and Jimmy Savile 'Sir'. Keir Starmer said hello to Taylor Swift.
