Rejected petition: Save Britain's farmers
Rejected on
Reconsider 2026 tax changes. Protect farms from forced sales and breakup. This isn’t just a financial issue. It’s about protecting the foundation of Britain’s food security, rural economy, and cultural identity. They are not passive assets; they are living systems of work, care, and responsibility.
These changes could price family farmers out of their land and open the door to land investors. Farming isn’t just business — it’s stewardship, heritage, and self-reliance. If we lose our farmers, we lose food security, skills, and the living culture of responsibility they represent. A resilient country needs local food, local knowledge, and strong rural foundations. This policy threatens all three — and once they’re lost, they cannot be rebuilt.
