So, thats me done posting on twitter. The recent upsurge of hate, bile, fascism, racism, trans and homophobia has turned this place into a cess pit. Musk has done nothing to protect it, quite the reverse. So I'm out. See you over in threads and mastodon!

@Martininc1 @i_iratus I think what you mean is rich, absentee landlords will have to sell land because of this policy. Good. The rich only bought it to avoid tax. Sell it to actual farmers who care about the actual land, rather than hoarding it to avoid paying their share.

[Mark McIntyre @markmac99]

@DaveSW40 @i_iratus The average farm isn't worth £200m, so your numbers don't come even close to adding up either. The average farm is worth around £2m and would incur a tax bill of zero if the deceased was married.
Plus why the hell should farmers escape IHT which everyone else has to pay?

[Mark McIntyre @markmac99]

@BuckCllr @i_iratus Its been proven already that only a small minority of farms will pay IHT, and it will not affect food prices. Stop making stuff up to feather the nests of your rich buddies.

[Mark McIntyre @markmac99]

@Rod__Mason @i_iratus Firstly, agricultural land is worth about £12,000 per acre *for agricultural purposes* so his estate could sell it to smaller farmer, and secondly why isn't it set up as a business which would not incur IHT? £200m of land is about 16,000 acres.

@wrightwingman @marcorubio In Geneva, on 21st Jan 2021, Sergei Lavrov, Russian foreign minister said: "You are claiming that Russia is planning to attack Ukraine. We have repeatedly made it clear that this is not the case." One month later, Russia attacked Ukraine. Source: Russian Foreign Affairs dept.

@tomhfh @BenWallace70 you do know that Whatsapp isn't run by Apple, right?

[Mark McIntyre @markmac99]

@tomhfh I notice it took you two hours to correct your tweet, despite numerous people informing you of your error.

@astorey88 @RoryStewartUK You're either a Russian asset or a really bad person. Which country invaded which ? Why the fsck should ukraine look for peace from an attacker who has constantly shien bad faith, and attacked again and again.

[Mark McIntyre @markmac99]

@JackBMontgomery @RoryStewartUK It's a meeting to discuss ending the war in ukraine. But of course the US has abandoned democracy and europe and is now friends with fascism so.

@efdavis419 @angie_rasmussen These plans literally take away people's freedom to receive life saving treatment. Freedom to choose is being removed.

@philthemod67 @paullewismoney Half our food comes from overseas, largely the EU. As has been explained ad nauseam, only a small minority of wealthy farmers are impacted by the tax rule, which still gives farmers estates a 50% tax break and 20x longer to pay than the rest of us. You're being played.

@Dahshur11 @campbellclaret Why are you defending Putin dahlsur?

[Mark McIntyre @markmac99]

@JTKernowek @SimonScarrow Only if you're a cow - farmers find it more lucrative to grow animal feed than human food and half our food is imported. Because lettuce doesnt grow in Yorkshire in January....

@yate51751 @LCorbett60 @SimonScarrow You sit are a bad person. Now sit down.

Until 2016, the UK was a normal, prosperous, functioning, happy country.
Then this lot destroyed everything, while handing what money we had left to donors and fraudsters.
The people are now paying the price.

I am right in thinking everyone wants to Rejoin the EU aren't I?

Like if you do
RT if you really do

@davidpalmer2009 @StanCollymore You know the war started in 1939, right?

@DavidP03115036 @HughEdw31897368 70% want closer ties with europe. The racist inspired brexit was the no-mandate act of vandalism.

@BrokerBeats @Angry_Staffer How? With what raw materials? Which patents? What skilled workforce? The US imports this stuff because it cant be made in the US. Oeople are worryingly naive about 21st century industry
