Donkey Sanctuary and Inheritance Tax Debate

Starmer sold 7-acre Surrey field in 2022 for £52k capital gains tax, bought in 1996 for £20k to create donkey sanctuary for parents.
Sunday Times claimed Starmer arranged field to exclude inheritance tax.
Starmer denied arranging it for tax avoidance, stating he kept legal ownership.
Starmer gifted field to parents for donkey love and mother's illness.
Controversy over inheritance tax avoidance echoes Angela Rayner's resignation threatening Starmer's leadership.
