older. i'd say just think about how this affects my generation of farmers and how it affects their future of doing something that they've dreamed about for years. >> in weather news, the met office says the uk is braced for disruptive snow, ice and cold temperatures over the coming days. up to 20cm of snow may accumulate in the worst affected areas . in accumulate in the worst affected areas. in what's been accumulate in the worst affected areas . in what's been described areas. in what's been described by the met office as the country's first taste of winter. today, snow and frost have been recorded across parts of the yorkshire dales, as well as in certain areas of scotland, including at the coco 6auff viewpoint in aberdeenshire . and viewpoint in aberdeenshire. and at full time it was poland one, scotland two at their nations league match in warsaw, with goals from aston villa's john mc6inn and a 93rd minute winner from liverpool's andy robertson. this victory means scotland's hopes of remaining at the top level of the competition are kept alive, and it gave the tartan army plenty to celebrate

2:05 am
and us arms are used in russia. the times have big retailers warn of job losses after a tax increase. the daily mail flight chaos as ba is hit by another it meltdown. the sun returned to clarkson's farm, er6 and daily star offer grit britain that means there's a freeze coming. i guess that's plenty of news there , cressida. let's start there, cressida. let's start with tuesday's telegraph . with tuesday's telegraph. >> thank you. plenty of news. farmers must pay up for the nhs, says reeves. so she's refusing to back down on her tax raid. she's ploughing along with this , she's ploughing along with this, even though it could lead to food insecurity . she seems food insecurity. she seems absolutely mad. it's like let them eat cake, but we can't make any cakes because there won't be any cakes because there won't be any eggs. >> let them eat labour policies. well, let them eat animal feed. yeah , all these lefty yeah, all these lefty celebrities be like, well, this is fantastic. >> farmers are richer than me. so i think they should be taxed because, you know, obviously labour are the politics of greed and envy. i just can't wait to see terry christian try and get enough calories from. he has been a labour manifesto. he's
2:06 am
been a labour manifesto. he's been so vocal on twitter about this, hasn't he? >> it seems to have really activated the old 40 year old. i'll have to follow him. well, he's like his 40 year old span since he was of any relevance, but i think there is a there is a weird disconnect with farmers because we all know, i mean , because we all know, i mean, farmers markets, for instance, they are the ultimate bourgeoisie treat, aren't they? you go along and you get your sourdough, you get your speckled eggs from a specific bird. >> you have a piece of stand up about this, about taking kids to small farms, and they see one alpaca and think, that's how food is made. >> absolutely. and then you spend a fortune in the gift shop. exactly. but but then we all know also farmers earn like five or even four figure salaries. sometimes, despite the vast assets, it is a weird business model. >> and there's an incredibly complicated tax code. so if you're doing the farmers market stuff, then all of a sudden you're not just a farmer. if you've got a yurt in the corner of your field, that you rent out for £30 a night, then you've got another thing to be taxed. so it's all it's all incredibly complicated. i think in this country we need to really simplify tax codes and also stop farming. i mean, there was a
2:07 am
labour former labour adviser, john mctiernan, who said who said, you know, starmer should treat the farmers like thatcher treated the miners. and that's an absolute insane idea. i mean, coalis an absolute insane idea. i mean, coal is something you don't need coal is something you don't need coal every day or you don't need it fresh. you don't eat it fresh. >> you can load that up for the winter. >> you can keep it in the bath upstairs. but but the key is the thing with the farm is it's business. >> and so they're treating it like it's a realised asset. if you try and pass it on to your children there, it's like the old stately homes which did for them . right. some of them went them. right. some of them went to the national trust, some absolutely glorious. vast estates were just trashed to no purpose whatsoever. >> a lot of the current family farms were actually bought when people had to sell off their land to pay inheritance tax. when your tax codes were changed, you know, hundreds of years ago. so this has come around again. >> and we also saw, of course, will hutton of who made a fortune and bought a large stately home in the in the cotswolds off the back of his thatcher book. one of us, i think it was called or something like that. under the state we're in and he's he's saying that
2:08 am
he's actually relishing it. he's not saying, oh, they'll be fine . not saying, oh, they'll be fine. he's actually looking forward to farmers having to sell up and these farms falling into the hands of i don't know, new entrepreneurs with, you know, who want to farm lentils or something. >> well, they see they see young people are going to come in and it's going to rejuvenate farming. but i'm not i'm not sure that that didn't work really well in zimbabwe . really well in zimbabwe. >> buying my first flat. it's not that easy to buy property , not that easy to buy property, buy a farm instead. well, apparently yeah. >> i have a young person who lives with me. he would rather not buy a farm. i think he would rather stick with the other things i think is extraordinary. >> is that thousands of farmers are potentially coming to london. it's not easy to have a day off if you're a farmer. i've worked on farms, admittedly not in this country, but it really doesn't stop the i know we keep heafing doesn't stop the i know we keep hearing it. they're up at 5 am. it just doesn't stop. i drove a tractor for a few months on a grain harvest in australia, and then i looked after some sheep for a few more months. >> there's going to be for a few more months. >> th
