Zelensky insists on a 'just peace' at Trump Paris meetingJeremy Clarkson has revealed his true incentive for purchasing a farm - indicating he thought it would offer a "better PR story if I said I bought it to avoid paying tax". The mind behind the immensely popular Amazon Prime series, 'Clarkson's Farm', ignored medical advice to join a protest against changes to agricultural inheritance tax implemented by the Labour government, marching with numerous farmers in London on Tuesday. Speaking to The Times back in 2021, Clarkson pointed out that dodging inheritance tax was "the critical thing" propelling him to acquire land. Additionally, he had expressed on the Top Gear website in 2010: "I have bought a farm. There are many sensible reasons for this: Land is a better investment than any bank can offer. The government doesn't get any of my money when I die. And the price of the food that I grow can only go up." Revisiting those remarks in a fresh interview with The Times, the ex-Top Gear host confessed: "I never did admit why I really bought it. I wanted to have a shoot - I was very naïve. I just thought it would be a better PR story if I said I bought it to avoid paying tax." Chancellor Rachel Reeves has proclaimed that from April 2025, combined business and agricultural assets exceeding £1 million would encounter a 50 per cent inheritance tax reprieve, effectively settling at a rate of 20 per cent, reports the Express . The move signalled a shift away from Agricultural Property Relief (APR), a measure aimed at easing the tax pressure on farmers, preventing them from having to sell off income-generating assets to afford the costs. Properties valued under £1 million remain exempt from inheritance tax. Despite his strong opposition to the tax amendments, Clarkson told the press he doesn't wish to become the figurehead of the campaign, stating: "It should be led by farmers." He expressed that although he doesn't see himself as a farmer, he believes his role is to "report on farming" and highlight the issue of rural poverty within the sector. "One of the problems we have on the show is we're not showing the poverty either, because obviously on Diddly Squat, there isn't any poverty," he said. "But trust me, there is absolute poverty. I'm surrounded by farmers. I'm not going out for dinner with James Dyson. It's people with 200 acres, 400 acres. Way past Rachel Reeves' threshold. They are f*****." When questioned about potentially pursuing a political career, Clarkson dismissed the idea, saying: "I'd be a terrible political leader, hopeless. I'm a journalist at heart, I prefer throwing rocks at people than having them thrown at me." On Friday, Sir Keir Starmer reaffirmed his government's commitment to supporting farmers and pensioners amidst discussions on tax reforms and the decision to restrict winter fuel payments to only the most financially vulnerable pensioners. The Prime Minister, speaking to BBC Bristol, outlined his commitment to various sectors of society: "We're for working people who need to be better off, who've really struggled over recent years." He emphasised support for the health sector, saying, "We're for everybody who wants to and needs to rely on the NHS, which is on its knees, and we've got to pick it up and we will and get those waiting lists down." On housing issues, he added, "We're for the people who absolutely need somewhere safe and secure to live that they can afford. All of that has to be paid for." The Prime Minister also expressed support for farmers and pensioners, stating, "We are also for the farmers and the pensioners." Additionally, he reiterated his stance on agricultural policy, confirming that "the vast majority of farms will be 'completely unaffected' by changes to agricultural inheritance tax."

Are We on the Brink of a Crypto Boom or Just Riding the Hype? 2025 Predictions Stir the Pot!

Yoon survives impeachment move, but party leader says president will resignORLANDO, Fla. — UCF coach Gus Malzahn is resigning after four seasons with the school. ESPN’s Pete Thamel was the first to report the move, which will see Malzahn to leave to take the offensive coordinator job at Florida State. Malzahn previously worked with FSU coach Mike Norvell during their time at Tulsa under then-coach Todd Graham from 2007-08. The Knights ended a disappointing 4-8 season in which they lost eight of their last nine games, the longest losing streak since 2015. Malzahn, 59, was in the fourth year of a contract through 2028. His buyout, it is reported, would have been $13.75 million. He finished 27-25 at UCF but lost 16 of his last 22 games and was a dismal 4-14 in two seasons in the Big 12. After back-to-back nine-win seasons in 2021-22, the Knights went 6-7 in 2023 and 4-8 in 2024. This season started with high expectations as Malzahn made sweeping changes to the program. He retooled the strength and conditioning department and hired Ted Roof and Tim Harris Jr. as defensive and offensive coordinators, respectively. He also added nearly 50 new players to the roster, leaning heavily on the transfer market. UCF started by winning its first three games against New Hampshire, Sam Houston and a thrilling comeback at TCU, but offensive struggles saw the Knights tumble through a TBD-game losing streak to finish the season. Terry Mohajir hired Malzahn on Feb. 15, 2021, six days after he was hired to replace Danny White. The move came eight weeks after Malzahn had been fired at Auburn after eight seasons of coaching the Tigers. The two briefly worked together at Arkansas State in 2012 before Malzahn left for the Auburn job. “When he [Mohajir] offered the job, I was like, ‘I’m in.’ There wasn’t thinking about or talking about ...,” Malzahn said during his introductory press conference. “This will be one of the best programs in college football in a short time. This is a job that I plan on being here and building it.” UCF opened the 2021 season with non-conference wins over Boise State and Bethune-Cookman before traveling to Louisville on Sept. 17, where quarterback Dillon Gabriel suffered a fractured collarbone in the final minute of a 42-35 loss. Backup Mikey Keene would finish out the season as Gabriel announced his intention to transfer. The Knights would finish the season on the plus side by accepting a bid to join the Big 12 Conference in September and then by defeating Florida 29-17 in the Gasparilla Bowl. Malzahn struck transfer portal gold in the offseason when he signed former Ole Miss quarterback John Rhys Plumlee. Plumlee, a two-sport star with the Rebels, helped guide UCF to the American Athletic Conference Championship in its final season. However, Plumlee’s injury forced the Knights to go with Keene and freshman Thomas Castellanos. The team finished with losses to Tulane in the conference championship and Duke in the Military Bowl. Plumlee would return in 2023 as UCF transitioned to the Big 12 but would go down with a knee injury in the final minute of the Knights’ 18-16 win at Boise State on Sept. 9. He would miss the next four games as backup Timmy McClain took over the team. Even on his return, Plumlee couldn’t help UCF, on a five-game losing streak to open conference play. The Knights got their first Big 12 win at Cincinnati on Nov. 4 and upset No. 15 Oklahoma State the following week, but the team still needed a win over Houston in the regular-season finale to secure a bowl bid for the eighth straight season. From the moment Malzahn stepped on campus, he prioritized recruiting, particularly in Central Florida. “We’re going to recruit like our hair’s on fire,” Malzahn said at the time. “We’re going to go after the best players in America and we’re not backing down to anybody.” From 2007 to 2020, UCF signed 10 four-star high school and junior college prospects. Eight four-star prospects were in the three recruiting classes signed under Malzahn. The 2024 recruiting class earned a composite ranking of 39 from 247Sports, the highest-ranked class in school history. The 2025 recruiting class is ranked No. 41 and has commitments from three four-star prospects. Malzahn has always leaned on the transfer market, signing 60 players over the past three seasons. Some have paid huge dividends, such as Javon Baker, Lee Hunter, Kobe Hudson, Tylan Grable, Bula Schmidt, Amari Kight, Marcellus Marshall, Trent Whittemore, Gage King, Ethan Barr, Deshawn Pace and Plumlee. Others haven’t been as successful, such as quarterback KJ Jefferson, who started the first five games of this season before being benched for poor performance. Jefferson’s struggles forced the Knights to play musical chairs at quarterback, with true freshman EJ Colson, redshirt sophomore Jacurri Brown and redshirt freshman Dylan Rizk all seeing action at one point or another this season. This season’s struggles led to several players utilizing the NCAA’s redshirt rule after four games, including starting slot receiver Xavier Townsend and kicker Colton Boomer, who have also entered the transfer portal. Defensive end Kaven Call posted a letter to Malzahn on Twitter in which he accused the UCF coaching staff of recently kicking him off the team when he requested to be redshirted.
