8:16Now PlayingThe government is bracing for its largest protest over domestic policy since Labour came to power as farmers are set to take to the streets of Westminster today.
Tensions are high among farmers following the Labour government’s decision to impose inheritance tax on farms valued above £1 million.
Farmers have expressed fears that the policy could spell the end of family-run farms, while ministers maintain that the measure will only impact large estates.
Farming leaders have denounced the decision as a "betrayal" of rural communities but emphasised that strikes causing food shortages are not their preferred course of action.
Nick Ferrari is joined by Clive Bailye, the founder of the Farming Forum, and is an arable farmer from Staffordshire - who has organised today's rally in London.
He is also joined by Tim Farron, the Environment Spokesperson for the Liberal Democrats, MP for Westmorland and Lonsdale & the party's former leader (2015-17).
