Farmers in England filled the streets of London with their tractors today to protest the government's controversial inheritance tax regulations. The demonstration, which saw the participation of around 300 farmers, paralyzed traffic in the capital's center.



Gathering in front of the parliament building from the morning hours, the farmers protested the 20% tax imposed on agricultural assets worth over 1 million pounds. Organized by the groups "Save British Farming" and "Justice for Urban Farmers," speeches were made during the midday hours, followed by a slow drive protest with tractors.



One of the organizers, Matt Cullen, stated, "We will not allow our farms to disappear. This is a war, and we will win." Famous television presenter and farmer Jeremy Clarkson also supported the protest.



A similar protest was held last month, attended by 13,000 people. Farmers argue that the new tax regulation will severely harm family farms and negatively impact the agricultural sector. Labour Party leader Keir Starmer claims that the regulation is necessary.
