Rejected petition Support future food security by reversing decision on farmers inheritance tax

Reverse the decision on inheritance tax for farmers to allow investment and stability in British food supply chain.

More details

I am deeply concerned that the inheritance tax on farms undermines national security. The volatility with current wars, means the UK has to be self sufficient for food.

For the record I am not a farmer, I just can see implications of the decision.
