If you watch one video this weekend, make it this one
This is one of those videos that you could work on forever, but suddenly it felt very important to make it, so I finally did: www.youtube.com/watch?v=d8Pn...

🚜 This week saw protests against proposed changes to inheritance tax on farms.

But there’s been disagreement over how many farms might be affected.

We take a look at the different figures circulating.
How many farms will be impacted by the new inheritance tax rules? - Full Fact
