Louise Haigh resigns immediately for a spent conviction
Reform MP James McMurdock was jailed for repeatedly kicking his former girlfriend & Farage stands by him
As for the Tories, IF they resign it’s because they’re dragged kicking & screaming & then reappointed later

"I farm just under 5,000 acres myself,"
Says multi-multimillionaire Lord Lloyd Webber, whose descendants will now presumably have to pay inheritance tax on it.
The "ordinary farmers" are really out in force huh.

California is ready to fight.
I just called an emergency special session to help bolster our legal resources and protect our state against any unlawful actions by the incoming Trump Administration.
Whether it be our fundamental civil rights, reproductive freedom, or climate action -- we refuse to turn back the clock and allow our values and laws to be attacked.

For the record - I was completely wrong about Kamala Harris. It is heartbreaking that Trump is now the President.

The Country Land and Business Association says the new £1m cap on agricultural inheritance tax relief will "harm 70,000 farms". That's 1/3 of all farms.
What does the actual data show? Less than 500 farms/year will be pay more tax as a result of this change every year. Possibly as few as 100.

Under Labour plans 73% of farms won’t pay any inheritance tax at all, the smallest farms will be protected and those that do pay will have ten years to pay it.
The bleating you hear is very rich people being asked to cough up a bit of money - when they die - maybe.

Strange that Jeremy Clarkson is so annoyed about something that doesn't affect 87% of farmers, but which closes a loophole that allowed very rich people to buy farmland simply to avoid inheritance tax.
