Jeremy Clarkson argues against inheritance tax changes as thousands of farmers protest in London

Jeremy Clarkson speaks to Victoria Derbyshire as thousands of farmers descended on Westminster to protest against the Labour government’s inheritance tax changes announced in the Autumn budget. From April 2026, inherited agricultural assets worth more than £1m, which were previously exempt, will be liable to the tax at 20% - half the usual rate.

Mr Clarkson has called on the government to “please back down” over the plans.
