CLA comments on planned ‘Change Your Tune Starmer’ rally
THE CLA (Country Land and Business Association) has commented ahead of a Trafalgar Square /
Whitehall rally (‘Change your Tune Starmer’) on Monday 10 February to coincide with a Westminster
Hall debate which will take place in Parliament at 4.30pm in which MPs are being asked to once
again consider the issue of Inheritance Tax.
Tabled by South Norfolk MP Ben Goldsborough in response to the petition ‘Don’t change
inheritance tax relief for working farms’ which garnered more than 147,000 signatures, the
discussion will be streamed live to those gathered in Whitehall.
CLA Deputy President Gavin Lane said: “The government is hoping we’d move on, but these are
our livelihoods we are defending. This issue will haunt them until they see sense. The case against
these tax reforms is only growing stronger, and we are working to bring the whole of British industry
together for the common good.”
“We are delighted to be supporting the rally on Monday and thank everyone involved, and the
public, for their backing.”
