The UK is going to start charging a death estate tax on farms that have been in families for hundreds of years…..

Is it to break up the farms so they are forced to sell the land and then the new landowners get it rezoned from AQ to REZ and put up ghastly rows of low quality homes forever dotting the lovely UK countryside?
This is a tax that very persons estate is libel for, in the UK.
Ordinary householders pay 40% Farmers are being asked to pay just 20%
Why should they be exempt ?

It will only affect farms worth over £1 million
Ordinary householders will be due if their estate is worth £325,0000
I would say farmers are getting the best deal here..
