just curious as an non-partisan outsider , according to earlier posts LCC takes 82 % of the council tax , leaving 18% for diving up by HBC the local council .
now a couple of questions .....

1. is this a fixed ratio 82 to 18 or does it fluctuate ?
2 . is there a breakdown of % increases by the LCC and HBC (who is demanding a bigger slice of the pie ?)
3 . Do the tax bills show where the increases have gone ?

Seems to me , and just an observation , the guys on the front line (local councillors ) are being used as whipping boys by their LCC colleagues who are responsible for devouring the bigger part of the pie
