    Breaking news - Council tax to be abolished!

    No more tax, no sir, now you can have a "levy" instead!

    Could council tax be axed for 0.5 per cent levy on the value of your house? | Daily Mail Online

    AND it will be much fairer!

    So much so, it will cost more to everyone!

    NOW THAT'S PROPERLY FAIR!

    It'll cost less for me. HTHBIDI. Knackers the suvverners up and will kill the housing market though.

      Don't worry they will add regional adjustments those people in less desirable places than Slough will be expected to pay 2%.
