Germany has it right. I pay about 20 quid a year out here.

I am curious to know what the American's here pay in local taxes as a comparison. But for sure, it is beyond me how people have accepted council tax and furthermore accepted it rising beyond inflation year after year. These so called plugs by the Tories are nothing more than shielding what are in reality continued increases.

Council tax is madness.
