Whilst I accept we do not have the cheapest council tax (you can see this in my first post), I find it rather bemusing that certain individuals will not credit HBC for having an increase 55% better than the national AVERAGE, never mind the fact that loads of councils must be above this average.
I think it has been said previously, so sorry repeating why people are dissatisfied.

A 35% cut in services. A 22% CT increase double that of wage rises (UNITE UNION) and subsidised services in excess of £100million. A council worker told me on Friday to "keep going. An honest politician. People need to know the truth about the waste."
