Scores of farmers stage tractor protest on city bypass amid inheritance tax row

The farmers formed a convoy of tractors on one of Edinburgh’s main thoroughfares on Sunday as part of nationwide protests against inheritance tax changes.

The large-scale demonstration, one of several events staged across Scotland over the course of the weekend, saw the procession of tractors travel from old Craighall to the Gogar roundabout, before making the return journey on the A1 in single file along the inside line.

The National Farmers' Union of Scotland (NFU Scotland) said the rallies were designed to highlight how the the UK government’s proposed changes to the inheritance tax system “threaten the viability” of family farms across the whole of the country, as well as the impact this would have on businesses up and down the supply chain.
