I thought it's a reference to Warhammer

It's almost as if the abstraction of "left and right" is oversimplified to be actually useful. Anyways, just because it's mainly the 'right' who spread the misinformation, doesn't mean that the 'left' doesn't consume it.

At the moment there are two kinds of bakeries in the UK: high quality sweet stuff OR good selection but supermarket quality. Yes, I wish Gail's was cheaper but their offering is amazing, and in my opinion the only "proper" bakery in the UK. I wish there were more local Polish/German/Jewish/Turkish bakeries that offer high quality bread and a mix of sweet and savory goods.

As I thought... "the land was awarded to a Norman knight, Robert Fitz-Corbun after the Norman Conquest." So the government can "steal" it and sell it to a non profit, this way people like you should be ok with it.

How do you think the royals and nobility got their estates?

I personally prefer to know people's weight in pebbles.

You clearly are invested in this issue, but your are missing the point.

You might not be aware of other industries, but it's a very similar situation in most essential businesses - high equipment costs and low margins.

I would still argue that family members who inherit a business are in a better position then, for example, a 20 year old waiter who inherits their mom's house in London. They also need to pay taxes that they can't afford.

Anyways... No one is saying that farmers or any essential businesses shouldn't get support. It's just that inheritance tax exemption is the wrong one, because if you create a loophole the rich will exploit it.

How is that different from any other family that inherits a business? The nominal amount might be different, but it's the same situation. If they can't afford to keep it, they need to sell - it's a frustrating situation for everyone, I don't see why farmers need to be special. As I said before, to protect society from wealth hoarding, inheritance tax is a necessity and should be properly enforced.

I don't see how inheritance tax is to blame. You'd pay less on inheritance tax than paying income/capital gains tax on selling your land. I suspect other reasons were at play.

Sorry that your parents had to sell, but it sounds like you're blaming the wrong people.

What a strange take. I definitely think that we should support farmers, but not by exempting them from inheritance taxes. We should incentivise the correct things - If they work the land give them subsidies.

If you don't tax inheritance you're creating a generational wealth hoarding. Let's take Jeremy Clarkson for example - he openly stated that the reason he bought farmland was so that his children can inherit it tax free. If he didn't have a farming tv show, he would lease that land to actual farmers.

It might be different in other parts of the world, but in the UK, that has relatively high population density, sitting on farm land for generations can be very very lucrative. Most of the richest pieces of real estate in this country were farmland a century or two ago.

For someone with no prior knowledge - can you explain why is that?
