Conservative — Bridgwater

Speaking in the House of Commons on 14 October 2026

Debate

Inheritance Tax

Contribution

Does my hon. Friend agree that it is completely iniquitous that family farms have to pay inheritance tax on their assets, and yet if those assets were owned by a foreign company or individual, no inheritance tax would be paid? Why do this Labour Government want to single out British-owned family farms?
