Monkeys Fist 42392 Posted November 2 Share Posted November 2 It’s quite incredible that on paper the Tories are the most progressive main party- 4 women leaders, one of them black, first Asian leader of a major party, countless openly gay MPs, and yet, they’re still the party of Little Englanders, Gammons and hate. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 44826 Posted November 3 Share Posted November 3 The media should take some responsibility for rehabilitating this bloke's reputation by inviting him on as a commentator. He's a fucking wingnut and he should have been treated as such. "Not perfect". Fucking dickhead. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ewerk 30571 Posted November 3 Share Posted November 3 Watching Kuenssberg for the first time in years and it hasn’t got any better. They’ve played a clip to Rachel Reeves of a young farmer complaining that they’ll have to pay £1 million in inheritance tax when her parents die and Kuenssberg makes it’s clear that this isn’t a rich farmer. Now by my fag packet calculations that farm has to be worth at least £8m in order to attract that sort of tax yet it is being presented as an attack on struggling farmers. Is there no basic fact checking on this show? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaddockLad 17245 Posted November 3 Share Posted November 3 The problem with the farmers IHT appears to be that their relatively uneconomic land is ludicrously overpriced. Would it be possible that agricultural land prices have been artificially inflated by the likes of Ckarkson hiding his wealth in these tax free holdings?… irony isn’t a strong enough word for that really. Maybe “deeply disingenuous wanker” would be more appropriate Here’s one of @ewerk’s neighbours (it might even be the great man himself, I mean, who knows? ☺️) he certainly doesn’t sound like he’s making this shit up. 25k a year on keeping beef on 100 acres is such a chicken shit wage he has a second job. Where I was brought up some single fields are that size ffs. Then he says the land value is £3 million That’s the problem as far as I can make out. In principle I largely agree with what the farmers are saying about their legacy and ongoing food production in the future. But they’re also sat on blatantly overpriced assets which they’re desperate to cling on to… mostly because they’re blatantly overpriced 🤷🏻♂️ from 0:24:40 https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0024ftn?partner=uk.co.bbc&origin=share-mobile 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's almost as if it's a left wing budget where those with £millions in property/business owners are being asked to chip in a bit more towards the public sector rather than those on minimum wage .

But the real point here is that once again the BBC are letting a spud muncher who doesn’t know his arse from his elbow on air to quote figures that aren’t remotely true. The truth is a married couple owning a farm together can split it in two, meaning it qualifies for £2m of agricultural property relief, plus another £500,000 for each partner if a property is involved. So in reality thick Paddy will end up paying zero inheritance tax. And even if he did have to pay anything it isn’t like it has to be paid up front, it can be paid over ten years. Now I don’t expect on air presenters to be experts on every subject they’re talking about but why not get a tax expert on to counter these falsehoods and allay the fears of the people affected? 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also his parents could gift the land and as long as they don't die within 7 years he'll pay diddly squat. I've never understood why people get outraged about being taxed on unearned wealth (after a 1 million or so threshold usually) more than tax on their work which they pay every month of their lives. The power of the right wing media I guess. Edited November 3 by Renton 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJS 4378 Posted November 3 Share Posted November 3 It's correctly called inheritance tax rather than death tax because it's a tax on the receiver not the donor. That needs to be emphasised every time the subject is raised. If people object to it within that definition then they should agree that we don't live in a meritocracy and stop claiming otherwise. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It honestly feels like it doesn't matter if Labour's budget is left wing or not - it'll be called as being such. Same state of affairs in the US atm where everyone to the left of Hitler is a radical communist. Which does rather beg the question why we don't just own it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wykikitoon 20125 Posted November 4 Share Posted November 4 I record Countryfile every week so I can watch the weather for the week like the old cunt I am be coming. This weekend it's been the Children in Need one. They have done it from Chatsworth this year. Funny how they're promoting people giving money for charity from a place owned by a cunt who is tax exempt for allowing people access to his land. What a fucking country eh? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
