Family Farm Tax: "Outrageous" doubling down on Govt's betrayal of farmers

26 Nov 2025

EMBARGO: Immediate Release

Commenting on the Government's decision to keep the family farm tax in place, Liberal Democrat environment spokesperson Tim Farron MP said:

"It's outrageous that the Chancellor is doubling down on the government's betrayal of family farms today.

"Tinkering around the edges of the family farm tax will do nothing to reduce the devastating impact on many family businesses and will lead to many closing their farm gates for the last time.

"Thousands of farmers have travelled down to Westminster today to plead for the Chancellor's support - and this Government has shamefully turned their back on them."
