       Most of Britain’s major supermarkets have now publicly come out against the inheritance tax.

       Taking to X this afternoon, the campaign group No Farmers, No Food said they are now asking McDonald’s to “join retailers in supporting farmers in their campaign against the government’s inheritance tax on family farms”.

       “They describe British farmers as ‘their most essential ingredient’. Will they speak up for farmers now, before it’s too late?”

       Supporters of NFNF piled in in the replies, with Anna Bonner saying that as a McDonald’s customer “I hope you will join the fight for UK family farms and the food security they deliver”.

       Conservative Assembly Member Susan Hall added: “Please McDonaldsUK, without the farmers we have no food!”

       Farmers are still furiously campaigning against Rachel Reeves’ plans to tax their inheritance on their estates after they die, something that could lead to the mass selling off of land.

       20% Agricultural Property Relief will be taxed on estates worth over ￡1 million.

       Reacting to the demands from NFNF, the Countryside Alliance’s head of external affairs Mo Metcalf-Fisher told the Express: “McDonalds have for many years been a vocal supporter of British farming and their support in this important campaign would be incredibly significant.”

       “Farmers are battling for their future and they need retail businesses that support their hard work to speak out now, before it's too late. Supermarkets have already been vocal in joining calls from the farming sector in urging the Treasury to rethink the family farm tax, it is vital others follow".

       Farmers are set to return to Westminster on February 10, after the Chancellor showed no sign of relenting on her harmful policy.

       It will be the second London protest since Ms Reeves’ Budget last year, in addition to dozens more up and down the country.

       A petition demanding the Chancellor ditch the plan, which some say will raise just ￡115 million a year, has surpassed 100,000 signatures.

       A spokesman for McDonalds said: “We recognise the importance of this issue to British farmers and are conscious of the concerns being raised.

       "We, like many food businesses, are reliant on a thriving farming sector and want to see policy that will support farmers and help them to grow their businesses. McDonald’s is a long-term supporter of British farming and we remain absolutely committed to spending over ￡2billion a year on British ingredients that our customers love and trust”
