That's a gross over sensationalism.
Oliver, I don't support the Farmers on this issue.
That's my view which I've posted and you have yours.
I find the Farmers I've come across very uncompromising.
They haven't considered the whole package properly, IN my view
Plus the tax rate will be HALF the 40% everyone else has to pay anyhow.
I think the government unwise and even wrong to do it this way but it was elected to STOP ALL tax loopholes which this is.
Plus improve public services too.
That's what they'll be eventually judged on more in years to come.
If pensioners even have had to lose out then I don't see why anyone else should be special cases and not pay some extra too.
Not that you'll likely hear Farmers moaning at cuts to pensioners.
I'm sure however Farmers can find ways to avoid paying this tax.
.... .and they will I'd dare bet.
