Hundreds of demonstrating farmers gathered outside the Welsh Labour conference as the prime minister was speaking on Saturday, holding signs which read “enough is enough” and “no farmers no food”.It comes after the government decided to reduce the amount of tax relief farmers get on inherited land in its Budget, meaning it’s harder for farms worth more than £1m to be passed down through the generations.
Tractors and farm vehicles are seen lined up outside the venue of the Welsh Labour Party conference in Llandudno, north-west Wales on November 16, 2024“Colleagues have met with representatives of the farming community, we do understand these concerns,” Haigh replied.
