This speech belongs in parliament.

A farmer dies in April 2026. His son inherits the farm. The farm has been in the family since 1847. The farm consists of: 300 acres of grazing pasture, a farmhouse built in 1892, a barn, a milking parlour, two tractors of varying ages, a Land Rover that runs about 70% of the time, and a herd of 180 Hereford-cross cattle. On paper, the farm is worth approximately £3.2 million. This is because land near him has been bought recently by a London hedge fund looking for carbon credits, which has dragged the comparable value of every field within forty miles upward to a number nobody local can justify. In cash, the farm produces a profit of about £28,000 a year in a good year. In a bad year it loses money. The son also works as a fencing contractor three days a week to keep the operation viable. The inheritance tax bill on a £3.2 million estate, even at the reduced 20% rate, comes to approximately £140,000 after the increased threshold is applied. The son does not have £140,000. The son has never had £140,000. The son has £4,200 in his current account and an overdraft. The son sells 60 acres to a developer to pay the tax. The developer puts solar panels on the 60 acres. The remaining herd cannot be sustained on the reduced land. The herd is sold. The barn becomes a holiday let. A different family eats Brazilian beef this Christmas without knowing why the price went up. The Treasury collects £140,000. The land never produces British food again.

Listen when they tell you. “Everyone in the country will have a digital ID” Even if you don’t want one! “This isn’t a heavy handed approach but we will make sure everyone has one” Oh 🤡

Birminghammmmmnm are you listening #AVFC

@StanCollymore #Istanbul looking a lot like #Astonbul #UTV

Aye We.

The hardest work I'm doing today is applying the sun lotion..... Marbella life.......

It’s #UEL final week, Villans 😤

Very good point. 👏

There’s only one thing to post this morning

How’s everyone getting to Istanbul then. We’re looking at going direct. Booked our flights now as they are cheap and the hotels. 2nd legs a formality now Villa are cooked. Their legs have gone. #nffc

The loud noise you can hear out your window is coming from Villa Park

Var surely? Foul anywhere else on the pitch. #AVFC #UEL

Energy. Atmosphere. Enthusiasm.

On Friday night, we got a bizarre legal threat from Shabana Mahmood's special advisor: if we didn't agree to pull our planned story by 9pm, we would face a high court injunction. I suspect he thought he could bully @brumdispatch because it's a local publication. He was wrong!

This is what it's all about. Up the Villa. 💜💙 #AVFC

This era of comedy is gone😭😭

Just play this on repeat #Believe #AVFC #UTV #VTID #COYVB

Glenn Beck: "Where do you stand on the WEF?" RFK Jr: "We shouldn't be paying any attention to it. It's a billionaires boys club that’s arranging for the world to shift wealth upward, and to clamp down totalitarian controls on everybody else". "It's astonishing to me that these people go to Davos in their private jets, and they're able to tell these world leaders how to govern us in ways that eradicate our constitutional and civil rights." "COVID we shifted $4 trillion of wealth upward. We closed all of the little guys. They were all colluding with each other to censor guys like me complaining about it."

@theofficialsjw If Spurs are so good why has it taken them 35 games to start playing for the shirt, they should be embarrassed, not spouting on like they are Top 6

Can’t be dealing with TNT sports commentary. Darren Fletcher is such a dick. Not stopped going on about Tottenham for 18 minutes #avfc

Spurs chirping how good they are yet it's taken 35 games to find some fight & pride for their shirt & club. Pipe down.
