Farmers are in London today, 11 February, fighting not just for their livelihoods but also for the voices of people across the country to be heard.
This week has exposed a mind blowing surge of scandals and hard truths, deep rooted within government.
Enough is enough, those in power involved must pay attention.
"Starmer, are you listening?”

We welcome that Asda has joined calls for the Government to pause and think again about the proposed Inheritance Tax (IHT) changes affecting family farms. After listening to farmers’ concerns, Asda is urging a full pause so there can be proper consultation - an example we hope other supermarkets will follow.
Huge thanks to every farmer who has taken the time to meet, write and engage with retailers to explain the real-world impact on succession, investment and food security. We now hope Asda will build on this momentum by engaging directly with Government until we land on a fair, workable solution for British farming.
