Small violin klaxon:

Quoted in FT regarding tax measures in Rachel reeves' budget, specifically various inheritance tax reliefs:

'Historic Houses, which represents more than 1,000 independently owned and operated houses, castles and gardens in the UK, said its members were in effect “rural small- and medium-sized enterprises” that were “often asset rich but cash poor”.'

If I was looking to secure sympathy over tax rises, stately home owners would not be my choice of example.

The Titanic wreckage tours by #OceanGate are a stark example of how #billionaires spend money that they do not pay in #taxes. It is unconscionable that #taxpayers should bear further the burden of rescue costs. Billionaires must be made to pay every cent of the US Coast Guard effort in this completely unnecessary and offensive tragedy.
