Pleased to see @labouruk.bsky.social approaching spiking prevention by targeting perpetrators. So much spiking prevention focusses on ‘keeping safe’. This is a step towards stopping it happening in the first place. www.theguardian.com/society/2024...

So much misinformation around today on who will be affected by changes to inheritance tax - and lobbyists pretending the data isn't clear to obfuscate. We have detailed data on estates so the truth is in fact very clear if you care to look 🧵

The hypocrisy of saying Labour should do more to tax the very wealthy and then opposing measures to tax the wealthy 🤷

On farmers and inheritance tax: it will generally only impact farms worth over £3 million and where inheritance tax is payable, all farmers will still pay less inheritance tax than the rest of society
