HBC probably get 85% of the hassle from residents and only actually get 15% of the money. On your figure of £1200 council tax HBC only get £180. I find those figures very annoying and wish HBC got more money to improve our borough.

I was one of the people who supported a Unitary Authority at the same time as Blackburn and Blackpool took the step into independence, okay we would have had to merge with another neighbouring authority, but at least we would know that whatever money raised from Council tax, 100% less possible police costs would be spent here on things that matter to us, not Lancaster Morecambe, Preston etc, being in the pecking order too
