Farming and Inheritance Tax

Proceeding contribution from Jon Pearce (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 4 December 2024. It occurred during Opposition day on Farming and Inheritance Tax.

To misquote Brian Clough, I would not say that my constituency is the most beautiful in the country, but it is certainly in the top one. We have generations of farmers to thank for that beauty—those who protected the land and nurtured nature long before the Peak District was designated Britain’s first national park. If I thought for one second that these changes to agricultural property relief threatened future generations of farmers in my constituency, I would not vote for them, but I do not.
