I am a just recent pensioner and on a fixed income now. Tighten the belt slightly is the way forward!.A few less pints a week etc.I already eat crap so nothing to change there!. Obviously they could phase the increases yearly to achieve the correct council tax charge to reflect the current house prices say over 5 years till it reached the true level. All governments have shied away from this as it's a massive vote loser so,if this is to be done this is as good/bad time to do it as any.Council tax bands below.I am in band A,i should be in band G,look at the difference in payments.Yikes!.Think i will need to go tea total to cover the increase......
