Jeremy Clarkson to defy doctors' orders and lead thousands of farmers from Diddly Squat as they descend on Westminster to protest against Labour's 'death' inheritance tax raid

Daily Mail  

Jeremy Clarkson is expected to defy doctors' orders and lead thousands of farmers from Diddly Squat and descend on Westminster to protest against the inheritance tax raid. Pictured: A protest outside the Welsh Labour conference in Llandudno Sir Keir Starmer has said that he understands changes to inheritance tax outlined in the Chancellor's Budget are 'causing concern' for farmers but insisted 'the vast majority of farms' would be unaffected Speaking at the G20 summit in Brazil on Monday, he said: 'On the question inheritance tax, look I do understand that it's causing concern. Fuming Clarkson, 64, is currently recovering from a life-saving heart operation and was ordered not to go on the march by his doctors and to 'avoid stress' Clarkson is pictured with cattle on his farm Clarkson - joined by co-star Kaleb Cooper - will lead 'two coaches of farmers' from Diddly Squat to demonstrate on the 'hugely important issue' The protests come after tax changes announced in the budget mean from April 2026 farmers will have pay 20 per cent inheritance tax on farms worth more than £1million - although this rises to £3million if farmers take advantage of additional tax relief measures. National Farmers' Union leader Tom Bradshaw will tell his members they have been 'stabbed in the back' by Labour, after the party 'wooed' the rural vote in July's election A sign on a field by the M40 in Warwickshire calling Ms Reeves a 'grave robber' in reference to the inheritance tax change Downing Street has refused to be drawn on Elon Musk's comments on X that Britain is 'going full Stalin' in its approach to farmers Meanwhile, NFU president Mr Bradshaw will accuse the government today of betraying farmers - with the tax changes affecting some 68 per cent of farmers rather than a tiny minority.
