It is £139, which is not as much as rates, but £139 none the less.
Andrew am I reading this post correctly, you have actually said that you are against something that was Conservative Party policy. I will make an entry in my diary, so that next time anyone says you always agree with Conservative Policy, i will be able to say 'no, he did not agree with the Poll Tax'.
