November 18 tractor protest an 'opportunity' for farmers to engage with MPs

Farmers will hold a demonstration in London to mark one year since protesters descended on the capital in 2024 to protest against the changes to Inheritance Tax announced in the Autumn Budget 2024.

Ahead of this year's Budget, to be held on November 26, farmers are being urged to come to London if possible to show the Government it needs to 'listen' to them.

Olly Harrison, one of the organisers of last year's London tractor protest, said tomorrow's event was an opportunity to engage with rural MPs.

Mr Harrison said: "It is a week before the Budget so it is a chance to speak to MPs from all parties. But it is also a year since last year's event which we wanted to mark."

He urged any farmers who were听 'travelling distance from London' and could make it on November 18 to arrive on Whitehall at 11am.

A separate protest is to be held on Budget day.
