FG Live -NFU President Tom Bradshaw to give address on the UK farming unions #StopTheFamilyFarmTax campaign outlining why the proposed changes to APR (Agricultural Property Relief) and BPR (Business Property Relief) announced in the Autumn budget will decimate family farms across the country impacting not just them but the wider agri-food sector and allied industries.
Hear why this is bad policy based on incorrect data and announced with no consultation. It stands to impact 75% of commercial family farms with many having no time to put plans in place to reduce the impact of the new tax, forcing many to sell all or part of their farm to foot the bill.
Show your support and join at 10am in Hall 9 on Wednesday 15 January.
