An Unfair Tax
Did you know that, if you look at the proportion of income spent on Council Tax, the poorest pensioners pay nearly SIX times more for Council Tax than the richest non-pensioners?

This unfair tax must go.
Council Tax was unfair when the Conservatives invented it to replace their failed and hated Poll Tax, and Labour\'s underfunding of councils has only made it worse.
What should we have instead?
We should replace Council Tax with a tax related to people\'s ability to pay. In countries as diverse as America and Sweden councils use a local income tax so people pay what they can afford.
