Exempt all Pensioners from Council Tax.

Petition Details

We call on Parliament to pass a law which exempts all pensioners from paying Council Tax. Current provisions only ensure that pensioners on the lowest incomes receive full relief, yet many others, particularly those on modest but above-threshold incomes, still pay this tax.

Additional Information

We believe Council Tax is increasingly unaffordable. Many pensioners often rely on a fixed income and face ever rising living costs, which may exacerbate financial pressures while pensioners continue to struggle. We believe exempting all pensioners from Council Tax isn’t just compassionate but is also fiscally responsible. We believe it could provide relief to a vulnerable demographic and help uphold public services by ensuring fairer funding models.
