Davey: Govt should withdraw farming inheritance tax measure
Ed Davey has called on the government to "withdraw" its new inheritance tax measure for farmers.
The Liberal Democrat leader says farmers are "worried" after Chancellor Rachel Reeves closed a loophole to stop rich people investing in land to reduce their inheritance tax bills, penalising them with a new million pound tax threshold.
