Give all your assets and money away, live for another seven years and then you won't pay anything!

On a serious note, you will only pay inheritance tax of 40% on the total value of your assets over the "nil-rate band" which is £300,000 for 07/08. Some assets will qualify for relief, e.g. transfers between husband and wife, business property.

If in doubt, please speak to a tax adviser and with a bit of planning you could save a lot of inheritance tax.

its to discourage people accumulating wealth to pass on to the next generation. It was devised by the Left wing politicians who didnt like upper classes children having a head-start in life.
Curiously, its the Labour party thats brought in Child bonds to encourage childern having a head-start in life.

Because we have a greedy chancellor who would tax the air we breath if he could only find a way to do it. When the inventor of television asked for a grant to develop his invention the government said no, Baird said you might be able to tax it !and they gave him a grant.

The government needs the money.

Personally I think it is fair - why should people get millions because of an accident of birth.

However the rich will always find ways round things so a higher tax threshold would help us poor mortals.
