Lucky enough to go to last night of Van Gogh exhibition at the national gallery. So many beautiful works gathered together from around the world. ‘Undergrowth’ was
a particular favourite.

Look I'm sure she was just "there for the small holders" - in the same way that Lord Lloyd (4,000 acres) Webber was.

The vast numbers of farmers will not have to pay inheritance tax. The new measures apply to people like Dyson and Clarkson. The government has failed to make this clear.
Important context here:
● over half of farms are less than 49 acres (20 hectares)
● "a big farm" is 217 acres.
Now let's see who's angry:
● Clarkson farm is 1,000 acres
● Lloyd Webber farms 4,000 acres
● Viscount Rothermere (Mail owner) 4,700 acres
● Dyson owns 36,000 acres
● over half of farms are less than 49 acres (20 hectares)
● "a big farm" is 217 acres.
Now let's see who's angry:
● Clarkson farm is 1,000 acres
● Lloyd Webber farms 4,000 acres

● Dyson owns 36,000 acres
A message from a REAL farmer who hasn’t been brainwashed by the Tories, wealthy landowners and the right wing media👇🏽

Why do 70,000 'farmers' think they should own 90% of the UK forever and never pay tax.
While the other 68,930,000 have the other 10% to share and must pay tax.
The ultimate elitist BS.

It's baffling – sacrificing our landscapes, tarnishing the environment, all to optimise conditions for red grouse so people can blast them out of the sky for fun.
