Jenryk painting a picture of HMRC staff coming to do an inventory/valuation whilst the corpse is still lying in their house. How low can Reform sink?

If you don’t want reform you can’t vote Labour. You need to build the Tories back up.

HMRC wouldn`t need to price it up and Jenrick knows that. They already have a form that you fill in detailing all the bank accounts and assets the deceased has to pay inheritance tax.

Just right wingers inventing emotionally loaded theatre yet again.

I have told my family that I don`t want to inherit anything, and some of them have loads of great stuff.

Intergenerational wealth is a problem imo, not a solution.

Adults should make their own way in the world and not have to rely on dead people for financial security.

And if folk want to take their foot off the gas a bit near the end of their life because they don`t need to scrape a bit extra to mollycoddle their 50 to 60 year old "children" then we have an extra benefit rather than a problem in my view.

Inheritance doesn`t benefit poor or middle class people all that much anyway, especially compared to how it allows the super wealthy to hoard massive wealth over multiple generations, hundreds of years, like some sort of modern day feudalism.

I can see the point if one or both parent of a minor die, then there`s definitely a case to be made for the estate providing enough to cover half of the children`s upbringing.

You are going to have to fix the housing market too.

What about grandparents who look after their grandkids a few times a week while folk with no parents have to pay for it, or not work at all. Where do you stop?

Just because you have your view of what`s right and wrong, and you have made your own choices (fair play to you for living by your own beliefs) doesn`t mean we need to be an outlier against most of the democratic world.

You keep telling everyone you’re a communist but I don’t think you realise what life under communism actually is.
