Does Dyson intend to buy England

Is there any discretion when it comes to death duties? I don't think there has ever been, but could be wrong.
I wouldn't know but if your life is cut short serving your country I would like to think that there would be some sort of relief for the family as many probably wouldn't have wills in place at such a young age probably

Personally I think Dyson is one of the best and most positive things to happen to British ag for decades. Rather him owning big chunks of British farmland than an out of date aristocracy that were given it mostly because a distant relative killed someone for the king etc ! or even worse being bought up by Russian oligarchs and Chinese businessmen


we need innovators, influencers and money in this industry and James Dyson certainly ticks all those boxes !

I would sincerely hope that all soldiers will have made a will. Especially very rich soldiers or any other warrior whose risk of death could be slightly higher than your average farmer who serves his country by feeding it and gets no guaranteed net income whatsoever for his efforts.

My word plenty on here knocking Dyson. He probably will give more business and employment opportunities than a good few, he's investing when others are holding off and any one of the other posters on here could compete with me for land and opportunities. I claim no sub so anyone who does is competing against me

You could, of course, have bought entitlement to subs. That you have not is purely down to your management decisions, unless there is some other hidden factor.

Not that I have any experience but seem to recall reading that in recent conflicts armed forces personnel are "encouraged" to leave wills
