What British Farmers Need to Know Right Now - Please Share It

Inheritance Applies to legal persons, and you are not a legal person.

Right now, farmers across Britain are protesting inheritance tax changes that threaten to break up family farms. Tractors are blocking London streets. Families who have worked the land for generations are fighting to keep it.

But what if the fight itself is based on a false assumption?

What if inheritance tax — and in fact all statutory taxation — doesn't actually apply to you?

This isn't a loophole. It isn't a scheme. It's the actual operation of law, hidden in plain sight.

The Question Nobody Asks

Have you ever stopped to consider whether taxes actually apply to you? Not whether you can reduce them or defer them, but whether they apply to you at all?

Most people never ask this question. We assume government has authority over us by default. We assume statutes apply to us automatically. We pay what we're told to pay.

But what if that assumption is wrong?

What if statutes — including inheritance tax — apply only to legal persons, and you are not a legal person?

You Are Not a Legal Person

This sounds strange. It might even sound ridiculous. But stay with me, because this is how the law actually works.

A legal person is a government-created entity. A construct. A name on a register. It exists on paper because government brought it into existence through registration.

You are a living being. A man or woman. Created by nature, not by government. You existed before any paperwork was filed. You exist independently of any register.

These two things are not the same.

Look at any statute. Notice that it targets "persons." Not living beings. Not men and women. Persons. This word is defined in law, and it doesn't mean what you think it means.

A person, in statutory terms, includes corporations, trusts, and other legal entities. These are artificial constructs that exist only because law created them.

When you were born, a registration took place. A birth certificate was issued. This created a legal person — a title, a name in capital letters, an entry in a government database.

That legal person is not you. It is a construct associated with you. And all your life, you have been presumed to act on its behalf.

The Presumption That Controls You

Here's how it works.

Government creates obligations — taxes, regulations, licences, penalties. These obligations attach to legal persons. That's who statutes address.

But a legal person is just a title. It can't think. It can't work. It can't own property in any real sense. It has no capacity of its own.

For a legal person to function, it needs a living being to act as its agent. Someone to do the thinking, working, and owning on its behalf.

Government presumes that you are that agent. They presume you represent the legal person created at your birth registration. They presume this from the moment you're born until the moment you die.

But presumption is not law. Presumption is assumption. And assumptions can be challenged.

Agency Requires Contract

In law, agency is a contractual relationship. For you to be the agent of a legal person, there must be a contract. A valid contract requires offer, acceptance, consideration, intention, certainty, and capacity.

When did you sign such a contract? When were the terms explained to you? When did you knowingly accept?

You didn't. No such contract exists.

What exists is conditioning. From birth, you were taught to identify as the name. To respond to it. To use the documents associated with it. To believe you are the legal person.

But belief is not contract. Conditioning is not consent.

What This Means for Inheritance Tax

Inheritance tax is a statutory obligation. It attaches to the legal person. It claims a portion of the estate held in that legal person's name.

But here's the question: is the farm actually owned by the legal person? Or does the legal person merely hold bare title while the beneficial interest — the real ownership — belongs to you, the living being?

For your beneficial interest to be reached through the legal person, it must have been validly transferred. That requires an instrument — a document with clear intention, identified property, and proper formality.

Where is that instrument? It doesn't exist. You never signed over your beneficial interest in your farm to any legal person.

Under established principles of equity and trust law, where no valid transfer occurred, beneficial interest remains with the original holder. That's you.

The Choice Facing Farmers

So as a farmer, you have two options.

Option one: Protest. March on London. Block the streets. Demand that government change the law. Ask the same people who created the legal person — and who presume you represent it — to be fairer with the obligations they impose.

How has that worked historically? How is it working now?

Option two: Understand the mechanism. Realise that you are not the legal person. Establish a private express trust that correctly identifies the relationship — the legal person holds bare title, while you hold beneficial interest. Separate yourself from obligations that were never lawfully yours.

This isn't about fighting the system. It's about understanding it. And once you understand, you can step outside the presumption lawfully and peacefully.

This Applies to Everyone

Farmers are in the spotlight right now, but this isn't just about farming. It's about everyone.

Every person who pays income tax. Every person who pays council tax. Every person who applies for licences and permits and registrations. Every person who believes they are subject to statutory authority by default.

The mechanism is the same. Statutes address legal persons. You are presumed to act as agent for a legal person. That presumption has no contractual foundation.

Once you see it, you cannot unsee it.

It Takes Time to Accept

If you've read this far and you're feeling resistance, that's normal. This challenges everything you've been taught. Everything everyone around you believes. Everything society operates on.

But ask yourself: can they produce the contract? Can they show the instrument that transferred your beneficial interest? Can they prove the obligation applies to you — the living being — rather than just the legal person?

They can't. Because these things don't exist.

The authority you've lived under your whole life is there by presumption, not by law.

What You Can Do

Equity and trust law allow you to separate from the legal person. A private express trust — not a statutory trust, but a trust created by your own declaration — can hold the legal person as bare trustee while you retain all beneficial interest.

This places you and your assets outside statutory reach. Not by fighting the system, but by correctly identifying your position within it.

No inheritance tax. No future generations losing the farm to taxation. Because the obligation attaches to the legal person, and you are not the legal person.

The Deception Exposed

It's time for farmers, and everyone else, to understand what has happened.

There has been a deception of enormous proportions. Not necessarily malicious — most people within the system believe it too. But a deception nonetheless.

You are not a legal person. The statutes being applied to you as a living being are not your obligations. They are there by presumption, not by law.

The operation of true law — contract law, agency law, common law and equity — can revert you to what you were before statute claimed authority through conditioning. It can free you from obligations that apply only to the legal person.

And it can expose the truth.

This is just an introduction. Understanding the full mechanism takes time. Implementing it requires care. Take the course, and take action.

The protests may or may not change government policy. But understanding the law can change your position entirely.

You are not a legal person. And that changes everything.
