Revoke Ability to raise Council tax By 5% and lock in line with inflation only.

Petition Details

Councils have been given permission to raise council tax by 5% a year. This is 2 to 3% over inflation year on year. This option will ultimately harm already crippled UK homes in the next 5 years. You cannot demand money under force of punishment where there is none spare.

Additional Information

Local Authorities are using the leeway given raising council by the maximum 4.99%. Within 5 years this will cripple families and within a decade will make it impossible to have a functioning household on standard wages. Raises like this supported and enforced year on year is unacceptable and is pushing families and homes into financial ruin. over 5 years council tax will rise roughly 28% over the unacceptable current tax bill. People are already living hand to mouth and is totally unacceptable.
