Farmers furious as Met Police stop protest on Rachel Reeves's big Budget day
Farmers were furious after the Metropolitan Police abruptly stopped their planned tractor protest on Budget day when Chancellor Rachel Reeves was delivering her statement. The protest, organised by the Berkshire Farmers Group, was to oppose the Family Farm Tax and had been in preparation for six weeks with the Met Police. Suddenly, less than 10 hours before the event, the police withdrew consent citing risk of disruption to the community and external pressure, allowing only a very limited protest area that could barely accommodate two vehicles. Farmers described the police action as a betrayal and accused the force of "two-tier" policing, pointing out that other radical protests are allowed without similar restrictions. They expressed devastation but vowed that people would still come to protest in Westminster despite the police clampdown. The Met Police defended the decision, saying it was to prevent serious disruption to local businesses, emergency services, and Londoners' daily life. This police intervention came amid heated tensions over the Labour government's introduction of a 20% rate on agricultural land and farms worth over £1 million, which many farmers see as an existential threat to their livelihoods and the sector as a whole.
