Fortunately my house was cheap, wouldn't be able to afford the council tax otherwise

I won't see any benefit, but i understand the money is needed because councils haven't been saving enough for pension funds

Mines not got up much (5%), still have to pay 1459 per annum which is a fair chunk of cash every month, would be a fair way towards a nice new Scoob I think.

 

Gah just moved from a rented house which included council tax and am now paying £108 per month between 3 of us - bummer!

 

Mines gone up 8%, last year it was £84 a month to this year £92,we live in Thatcham in a 2 bed semi.
