Farmers’ new London protest against Labour ‘tractor tax’ ...The Standard podcast

Listen here on your chosen podcast platform.

Thousands of farmers converged on Westminster as tractors made a slow drive through central London on Wednesday afternoon in the second protest against Labour’s inheritance tax reforms.

Farmers travelled from across the country amid anger about the plans against the so-called ‘tractor tax’ announced in last month’s Budget, which will see farms lose inheritance tax relief on assets over £1 million.

The Standard podcast has analysis of the issue with Simon Smith, a land agent and senior lecturer at the Royal Agricultural University in Cirencester.

In part two, author Joe Muggs on his new book chronicling 25 years of London electronic music superclub Fabric.

You can find The Standard on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you stream.
