Planning on a trip to Edinburgh? This would be on my priority list! @andygoldsworthy thetimes.com/culture/art/ar…

@NFUtweets packed tent hear @ProagriLtd argue for the fair deal for farming needed to deliver national food security @3countiesshows

'Investment from the government today enables food production, successful farming and a thriving environment for the future'. NFU President Tom Bradshaw (@ProagriLtd) is joined by leaders from nature and farming organisations including @WildlifeTrusts @Natures_Voice @CLAtweets and @tenantfarmers, urging the government to fully fund the agricultural and environmental budget.

@MartinDaubney @NFUtweets Hi Martin. This is security put in place by the QEII because there’s another event happening in the venue at the same time as ours which they were concerned would attract environmental protestors. It’s not related to our event.

@NFUtweets That it should have to come to this. @ChrisBloore, please urge your colleagues to vote against this destructive #StopTheFamilyFarmTax

UK farming unions and organisations are urging Treasury ministers to be open to seeking solutions as they meet with them tomorrow to discuss the government’s disastrous family farm tax. Read more👉ow.ly/F3jM50V1tNg #StopTheFamilyFarmTax

I support the National Farmers Union's call for a pause on the government's proposed changes to inheritance tax. We need time to gather information to determine the full impact the changes will have to family farms in Wales. Great to hear dairy farmer Carys Jones's story.

@NFUtweets @ProagriLtd @AledNfu @NFUCymru @NFUStweets @UFUHQ Is the government listening? @ChrisBloore @UKLabour

On behalf of the four UK farming unions, NFU President Tom Bradshaw (@Proagriltd) & NFU Cymru President Aled Jones (@AledNFU) delivered our petition to #StopTheFamilyFarmTax to No.10, with over 270,000 signatures from the public. @NFUCymru @NFUStweets @UFUHQ

The NFU remains at the centre of the #StopTheFamilyFarmTax campaign as NFU President Tom Bradshaw (@ProagriLtd) gives evidence to @CommonsEFRA. Tom cited countless examples from farmers on the very real consequences the changes could have. Read more👉ow.ly/aa8k50UpjrE

proposals will be fought all the way. It is wholly in the hands of the govt to open up meaningful consultation before its too late

@_HannahRitchie always provides interesting, evidence-led perspectives on sustainable living. This on vertical farming highlights the energy cost of a frequently promoted 'solution'. open.substack.com/pub/hannahritc…

NFU President @ProagriLtd writes in todays Daily Mail ahead of the Opposition Day debate on #StoptheFamilyFarmTax I have never seen such anger in my life, writes Tom Bradshaw dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1…

UK efforts to tackle livestock antimicrobial resistance continue to show positive results, as the latest VARSS report published by @vmdgovuk revealed that multi-drug resistance in UK animals is at its lowest level since reporting began. Read more 👉 ow.ly/sq9L50UcvQF

Read @nfutweets assessment of the APR changes announced in @RachelReevesMP budget. We expect 75% of commercial farms will be captured by this poorly thought out policy. And every farm will need to take professional advice. #thinkagain #APR nfuonline.com/updates-and-in…

Govt has not done an impact analysis on the Family Farm Tax. As @NFUtweets President @ProagriLtd said: “To launch a policy this destructive without taking to anyone involved in farming beggars belief.” We’ve done what Ministers should have done weeks ago. nfuonline.com/updates-and-in…

The presidents of the UK farming unions are clear that they will continue the fight to #stopthefamilyfarmtax #BackBritishFarming @nfucymru @nfustweets @ufuhq

Last night in the House of Commons, MPs from across the House continued to raise concerns about the #FamilyFarmTax

@nvonwestenholz Important explainer from @nvonwestenholz setting out why #Budget25 needs rethink on APR changes. Simply, @labour will make succession unaffordable for most farming families

In an attempt to throw some light on things…some thoughts on yesterday’s Budget announcement on Inheritance Tax Reliefs (APR/BPR) and farm businesses… (1/) 🧵
