Why Did Farm Protest Snub Farage?

  • Nigel Farage was not given a platform to speak at the farming protest this week. But, why? The stated reason was that he would distract from the event and his association with brexit wasn't helpful. But the keynote speakers there were also forceful and open brexit supporters. What would the real reason be to invite Jeremy Clarkson to speak, but not Nigel Farage?

      Glad to see you go back on that. Clarkson is many unflattering things, but he never was a brexit supporter. Neither is he raging against other nationalities either, as far as I am aware. Hells, he is one of the few people I've seen to call out Boris Johnson to his face while he was mayor of London (While he was lying to Clarkson about the busses there).

He's spent a lot of his career travelling throughout the continent, and of course further afield for car launches, tests and motorshows, as well as fairly extensive travel for the sake of it (and television). He's generally quite open minded about 'others' despite what his pot-stirring rhetoric suggests. He's also acutely aware of bullshit so will have decided on benefits and otherwise based on quite well informed research.

      Aye, most of these bastards complaining are just wealthy landowners who lease flease actual farmers with high rents and are putting on this "small family's act to fool Joe public. Most of them drive luxury SUVs, not tractors..
      The fact is, the wealthy landowners in Britain are long overdue a tax hit, they have ducked and dived for decades to hold onto their medieval style land claims /ownership. I have to admit post Brexit I lost a lot of respect for farmers and fishermen for falling for the obvious nonsense of Brexit...it was laughably obvious how connected farming subsidies were with EU funding and knowing how bureaucratic both our gov and the EU is it was pure folly to assume anything could or would be done quickly to improve things for farmers... What's sad about it is that farmers have always had a strange nationalistic pull here in Britain, and so throwing their support behind the likes of the brexit campaign gave a sense of legitimacy to a project, which as of right now has yielded zero benefits and fulfilled none of its promised improvements... Surprise surprise...
      Notice that these tend to also be the 'landowners' that allow/don't report fox hunting (illegal) or any of the other multitude of illegal poaching that they love to do. In other words, they think they are better than the rest of us.

      I live in a fairly rural area, in the run up to the referendum there were large signs in quite a few fields urging people to vote "yes", which they did and as a result the farmers lost their EU subsidies. To the best of my knowledge didn't receive anywhere near the same amount in subsidies, that they were promised by the leave campaign, after we "took back control"...oh well, perhaps it is reasonable that their beef is with the people who persuaded them to support Brexit but ultimately failed to deliver on the promises...such as Farage!

    I bought a farm in France 20 years ago when I became an immigrant to Europe. Ironically, I bought it with the proceeds of the sale of my family home because, as a firefighter, there was no way I could pay the inheritance tax and still keep the house. It was in our family for five generations and was probably very cheap originally, but with the outrageous rise in property prices and being in a sought-after area, combined with long term modernisation lumbered me with a much loved but totally unsustainable asset. I now have a small farm of 60ish acres in Normandie, which I manage alone apart from a contract firm to harvest hay. I've around 45 Roussin ewes and 20 hives of black bees. I admit it is a hobby farm that takes up little time and was primarily chosen for the house and the privacy. When I die because I have no children, 40% of my estate will go to the state. my beneficiaries, such as my God children will be liable for 20% in tax plus legal fees. as will any charities and causes to which I may make bequest to. If I had children the property would (by law) have been divided equally between them. Anyone who wanted to continue with the farm would have to buy out or rent from the others. Imagine how that goes if there are 5 or 6 siblings. British farmers have it easy.

      No, black bees are the traditional honey bees of France. Unlike the popular British Buckfast bees, black bees have little fur on their bodies and verroa mites find it difficult to infest their colonies. They are very productive though a bit protective and unless gently handled somewhat aggressive (understatement) but in a good year can yield 20 to 30 kilos of honey per hive.🐝

    Clarkson has been playing the 'Clarkson the imbecile meathead' card very successfully for decades. It's a persona that has him vehemently disliked by many people I respect. There is no question that he originally bought his farm as a tax dodge - plus it gave him a lovely house with a spectacular view while he paid a real farmer to actually run the farm.
    That all said, the Amazon Clarkson's Farm series reveals another side to the man which is much more genuine, not least because it's largely self-satirising of the meathead persona. The series makes it very clear just how disastrous Brexit was / is for British farming whilst also showcasing various important topics such as conservation, re-wilding, the decimation of our insects and pollinators and the non-sustainable nature of intensive mono-culture farming etc. about which the public, especially Clarkson's typical fanbase, need a LOT of educating. So if a 'spoonful of Clarkson helps the medicine go down . . . ' so be it.
    I think the series also makes the point quite effectively that if a farmer doesn't happen to have a few million quid stashed away to bale them out of both the insanity of Brexit and chaotic weather patterns with climate change, then they're likely to find themselves up shit creek without a paddle . . . and that's when they DO know what they're doing, unlike Clarkson. His showcasing the genuine hardships of small scale farmers with much less than himself is what's won him a measure of respect in the farming community, though probably very much more than he deserves.

Someone wouldn't be super rich just because an ancestor took land off someone else 950 years ago. A struggling tenant farmer wouldn't need to give half of their earnings to a landowner for the right to farm.
      How to do it would be a 100% inheritance tax on land. Slowly returning all of it to the state over a generation. This would also help the economy by reducing the cost of enterprise, at the moment someone starting an innovative business has to not only make it work to provide a living for them, they have to pay a return for all of the land, buildings and assets they use to someone getting richer just because they own those assets - mostly by inheriting massive wealth.

    There are several things to unpack here.
    1. There are many people vital to society; farmers, police, nurses, firefighters, etc. ALL get paid very little but ONLY farmers pay NO inheritance tax.
    2. Everybody paid IHT until 1986, when Lawson gave Farmers exemption (39 year with NO IHT).
    3. Now farmers are complaining because they have to pay IHT of 20% (payable over 10 years - so 2% a year) with a threshold of £1m. Meanwhile, everybody else pays 45% over £325,000 payable immediately. How does this look?
    Well, an average farm in the UK is 250 acres, which in land terms means it is valued about £2.5m + £500k equipment. This would attract an IHT bill of £400k (20% of £2m) or £40k a year over 10 years off a £3m asset!
    Compare to a middle class person who passes his £1m house onto his son and his £500k pension and savings (these are not extreme values). The IHT bill for the son would be 45% of £1.5m or £675,000.
    So a non farmer passing on a house and pension worth half that of a working farm, pays double the tax compared to a farmer - using the new regime. Under the old regime the farmer would have paid ZERO tax.
    Finally, I would remind you that Clarkson (and all of the other 'business' farmers) all bought farms to minimise their IHT bill. They might moan but even today, they will only pay 20% whereas everybody else pays 45%, so a nice 25% saving. It is about time the rich farmers and landowners paid their dues like everyone else. These Tweed wearing, tax avoiding, brexit voting snobs are starting to see they cannot do tax avoidance anymore. 👍

    Farage the politcal chameleon; - an authentic costume for every photo opportunity. Let us hope and pray that he doesn't gatecrash any naturists protest marches. A nation could be traumatised.

    'Toad of Toad Hall'? Very appropriate but I do not see Farage ever reforming.
