AOL Money: Council tax set to rise for 4m Britons
Matthew Sinclair, Director of the TaxPayers’ Alliance told AOL Money that councils are letting residents down by imposing a hike, given that so many are struggling to pay. “Over the last ten years there has already been a drastic increase in rates and, with so many other pressures on their finances, this is the last thing families need.”
Sinclair added: “Councils who are refusing to freeze should think again and follow the example of other local authorities who have shown it is possible to combine quality services with lower bills, and deliver much better value for money.”
