Labour (Co-op) — Midlothian

Speaking in the House of Commons on 22 October 2025

Debate

Inheritance Tax Relief: Agriculture Sector

Contribution

As I mentioned, we are in regular dialogue with farming stakeholders and we regularly consider the evidence that is presented to us. I would stress that, while we will always give evidence due consideration—indeed, the Prime Minister said that from this very Dispatch Box last week at Prime Minister’s questions—we will not deviate from our policy objective, which is both to raise revenue and to introduce greater fairness to our tax system. That is exactly what this change does.
