Council tax is high, I agree, probably too high, but you can't lay that at the door of Tony Blair, where as the Poll tax could be traced back to the top, MT Mr Howard, and Mr tebbit (if I'm informed correctly)  |
Yes -the Poll tax was down to MT - it cost her the seat.
Subsequently its gone up and personally I get naff all back. Locally the streets are NOT clean. Extra contribution is included for the Fire service. My income tax and NHI fund the NHS which include ambulance response. Locally they have a massive deficit which precludes any streert light improvements (including bunging in a new bulb)
