Where is your 35% figure from?
Can I just ask you straight off: Is it not a good thing that our council has kept tax to 45% increase, which in comparison, is a huge saving compared to the national average of 100%?
I don't know how you can come here and post that council tax has gone up more than wage rises, when up until the last year (or two?) the opposition have proposed HIGHER council tax increases every single year than the Conservatives. This means that if we'd have had a Labour council over the last 10 years council tax would have gone up much more than 45%, how can you justify this and yet not give credit to 45%?
