13/11/25 MPs call for inheritance tax impact assessment in Wales, mycelium as insulation, Guernsey cider

MPs call for farm inheritance tax to be halted, until an assessment of its impact in Wales is drawn up.

A report by the House of Commons’ Welsh Affairs Committee is calling for the Government's inheritance tax on farmers to be halted, because it says the tax will have a detrimental impact on Welsh farming, which is intrinsic to the Welsh economy.

How about turning fungi roots into building materials? It may sound a bit strange but its already happening - in laboratories, and in commercial enterprises too.

This year's apple harvest has been a bumper one, but with a small orchard on a small landmass, the family producing cider on Guernsey have had to find a creative way to supplement their crop.

Presented by Anna Hill and produced by Beatrice Fenton.
