The kulaks are revolting - does Urban back big farmer?

[burtabraham]

are you sure the current farmers are the best people to do that?

Maybe, maybe not. But the entire debate about this is framed in terms of fairness rather than national security, which doesn't instil much confidence in me that any policy proposed will actually make things better. Give me your ideas about how to make our agricultural sector more secure and I am all ears.

 

[burtabraham]

Should anything be done about the inheritance tax dodgers, developers and other wankstains taking thousands of hectares out of agricultural use each year?

Yes. Tax land speculators, absentee landowners, and those not putting agricultural land to use.

 

[ddraig]

The problem here is that people are looking at the issue through the lense of fairness or morality. I couldn't give a damn even if every farmer was an obnoxious, top-hat wearing toff. The fact is that the country's food supply is an issue of national security. Absolutely every benefit and privilege should be granted to those that keep that supply up and running. To hell with fairness.

They get and have got loads of benefits, paid left right and centre and they still whine

I work on lots of secure networks that are vital in keeping the nation secure as well as ensuring the NHS, civil service, supermarkets (part of the food chain and critical to our food security) and emergency services run smoothly. Do I get a tax break?

Yes. Tax land speculators, absentee landowners, and those not putting agricultural land to use.

That's something I could get behind. £1k/acre/year for any land left unused for two years or more. Five years and the land is taken from you and and put into public ownership.

Depends on the specifics of what you do. I'll allow you to present your case and then make a decision.

I build computer networks that provide secure access to IT resources. By doing so I protect these services from possible attack. That deserves a tax break surely.

I'll grant you your request this time, being that you seem like a nice chap.

In burtabraham 's "food on the table' tax code, I reckon those home delivery drivers must be right up there with the 50% IHT tax-break?

Pfft, no.

Goodness no! We need a healthy populous. People will walk for their food under my rule. No greasy slop allowed when I'm in charge.

Got to admit that I've long had a soft spot for this album and this track:

 

[Bahnhof Strasse]

I sell plane tickets to rich cunts who don't pay anything like their fair share of taxes. Surely it's not right that I should be taxed on their untaxed money, so an exemption for me please.

Mate, do any of the cunts grow any grub? That's the only way in Burtopia

There you go; that's gotta be at least 10% of your IHT according to Burtism. You'll ask for more than that, though?

 

[Saul Goodman]

I'm torn on this one.

Having put a little thought into this, I'm no longer torn.
Tax the fuckers! And not just the paltry amount that's on the cards when one of them snuffs it, take a leaf out of Norway's book and tax them properly for using natural/national resources for their own enrichment.
Land is a national resource. Nobody should be allowed to own land. It should be rented to them.
Start by taking back the land those royal cunts stole, or make them grow food for the people. Their choice.

I'm shocked, shocked I tell you:

Farmer protest organiser was behind racist and homophobic posts online

Clive Bailye, one of the five farmers who organised the march in the capital, wrote: "only a disabled, unemployed, black, LGBT, transgender, non tax paying, homeless, vegan immigrant in immediate need of NHS help" would vote Labour

All jokes aside, I am right in everything I've said. Just so you know.
