Statement by TUV leader Jim Allister:
“I would encourage everyone within the farming community and beyond to support Saturday’s tractor runs being organised across the Province to demonstrate opposition to the Government’s disgraceful assault on family farms via inheritance tax.
“The farmers in North Antrim, as elsewhere, have devoted their lives to building up their farms with the driving motivation to see the land handed on to the next generation. Now this kick in the teeth from uncaring government has rightly left many angry and betrayed.
“I will, of course, be joining with them on Saturday at what promises to be one of the largest demonstrations in Northern Ireland.”
