Reeves plants seed of doubt over reverse on crippling farm inheritance tax raid
Scottish Daily Express
|June 11, 2025
RACHEL Reeves has been urged to make a second major U-turn by reversing her hated inheritance tax raid on farmers.
The demand comes 24 hours after the Chancellor's humiliating climbdown over Winter Fuel payment cuts.
Senior Tory Vicky Atkins said the punishing levy is another “grave injustice” that must be put right.
Her warning comes amid fears that farmers will be clobbered again today, with the Chancellor expected to take a scythe to the government's agricultural budget in her Spending Review.
Ms Reeves has been blasted by the farming community after she slapped a 20% inheritance tax in her October Budget. Many farmers have held protests and rallies over the measure.
Fight
Hopes of a reversal were raised when Ms Reeves restored the winter fuel allowance to nine million pensioners south of the border this week.

Stinking rich will not pay your tax, Reeves
OK, SO I may not be burdened with a maths O-level — though I bet my 1977 D grade would be the equivalent of an A* today — but even I can do the basic calculations on this one. Rachel Reeves' “squeeze the rich till they suffocate” budget plan is an out and out stinker and doomed not only to ignominious failure but to subjecting people who’ve worked like the blazes to make ends meet all their lives to hellish worry and punitive suffering.
