THE HFG PODCAST – BUDGET DAY: WHY RURAL BRITAIN IS FIGHTING BACK

Farmers take to Westminster on Budget Day to protest Inheritance Tax changes – and The HFG Podcast is there.

In this special episode, host Martin Clay heads to London to join the Farmers’ IHT Protest on the day of the Autumn Budget. Against the backdrop of Westminster, Martin speaks directly to those at the heart of the issue – farmers fighting for their futures and the survival of British farming.

Guests include:

• Tom Janaway, Henry Graham, and Kurt Morton – all Farmers sharing their raw, honest views from the protest
• Alan Miller from the Together Association – offers an outside perspective on why food security matters for the whole nation
• Chris Philp, Conservative MP and Shadow Home Secretary – with an impassioned response to the farmers’ concerns
• Paul Burnett and Ed Smales, HFG Sales Directors – discussing how these changes ripple through rural businesses and the wider agricultural economy

The discussion covers:

• Why Inheritance Tax changes could reshape farming for generations
• The impact on rural communities and businesses beyond the farm gate
• Farmers’ hopes for clarity and fairness in succession planning
• The bigger picture: food security and the future of British agriculture

From early morning frost on Westminster Bridge to the roar of tractors in Trafalgar Square, this episode captures the emotion, determination, and urgency of a protest that matters to everyone, whether you farm or not.

Listen now to hear real voices from the ground and understand why this fight is about more than tax – it’s about heritage, livelihoods, and the future of rural Britain.
