Everything farmers need to know from London rally

The reforms to Agricultural Property Relief will be used to 'invest in our schools and health services that farmers and families in rural communities rely on'

Mr Bradshaw is expected to say: "I do not think I have ever seen the industry this angry, this disillusioned and this upset. And given what we have had to be angry about in recent years that is saying something"

In a debate led by Conservative MP for Chester South and Eddisbury, Aphra Brandreth, she said the cause of stress for farmers, particularly more recently, has been Government policy

"There will be a need for a rapid and concerted effort from the leaders in the rural and farming sectors to hold the Government to account on ensuring that the gulf between urban and rural support does not become even wider"

Defra promises raft of measures and confirms farmers to receive Recovery Fund cash in days

Shadow Rural Affairs Secretary Tim Eagle will lead a debate on changes to Agricultural Property Relief in Scottish Parliament on Wednesday (November 13)

The committee said it wanted to ensure it is hearing from people and organisations that are affected by Defra's responsibilities

Jeremy Moody, secretary and advisor to Central Association of Agricultural Valuers said the Government's claim that only quarter of farms will be impacted by Inheritance Tax changes ‘misses half of the picture and so understates the effects of the change'

The event is separate to the NFU's lobby being held on the same day, but organisers stressed the events were 'complimentary' and not in competition with one another
