  • Summary

  • Thousands of British farmers marched on Westminster as tractors converged in central London to protest against Labour plans to end inheritance tax exemption.

    Chancellor Rachel Reeves announced last month in the budget that farmers with land worth more than £1 million will no longer be able to leave their farms to their children tax free from 2026.

    We’re joined from Westminster by The London Standard’s chief political correspondent Rachael Burford, who’s been covering the protest.

    In part two, electric Lime bikes have overtaken Boris bikes as London’s preferred method of pay-as-you-go transport on two wheels.

    But it comes amid complaints about bikes being ditched across pavements and riders jumping red lights - so what’s the firm’s future in the capital?

    The London Standard’s transport editor visits Lime’s servicing depot in White Hart Lane, Tottenham, to find out.
