POLL OF THE DAY: Is it time for Rachel Reeves to U-turn on her farmers tax? YOUR VERDICT
WATCH: Farmer Rob Harris says Labour's inheritance tax raid is 'not viable'
GB News
Farmers across Britain are staging nationwide protests on Saturday against the Government's controversial inheritance tax reforms.
The National Farmers Union (NFU) has organised a series of events as part of a National Day of Unity to voice opposition to the changes.
The coordinated demonstrations come as agricultural communities warn of severe financial pressures facing family farms under the new tax rules.
The protests follow the delivery of a major petition to Downing Street on Friday, signed by more than 270,000 members of the public.
The inheritance tax changes, announced in Chancellor Rachel Reeves' Budget, will end tax exemptions for farms valued above £1 million.
In some cases, the threshold could extend up to £3 million before exemptions are removed.
The reforms mark a significant shift in how agricultural estates will be taxed upon inheritance, affecting farms that previously enjoyed broader exemptions.
The NFU has warned that many farmers are already at "breaking point" and cannot afford increased bills.
