    I worked for a Council and they are the laziest and inept people imaginable. They only work half their hours and either are off sick, at a "meeting" or have taken the day off. They spend money as if its going out of fashion. At the start of January every year they tell you to spend your budget or else you get less budget the following year. A complete waste of money. I brought it up at a meeting one time and my days were numbered after that as they ostracised me. I applied for another job in the private sector and left. I was glad as i didnt like the attitudes and the atmosphere or the idea of getting away with it all. These civil service jobs could easily be done by a quarter of the staff.

      You are being conned about the illegal immigrants story. This makes up less than 2% of legal immigration and is not a drain on our finances. The super wealthy are taking your money and buying super yachts, planes etc. They want you to blame the immigrants so they can carry on 4:24 doing it. Watch 'Gary's Economics' on Hou Tube.

  • @frogmanbrabs

    Council Tax is illegal. There is NO obligation to pay Council Tax. If you don't pay, the procedure is as follows. 1. The council will issue their own summons with no judge's name on it. 2. The court that they invite you along to is set up by the council and is not a genuine court. It is merely set up to scare you into paying. 3. If you still fail to pay, the council will send you a "notice" of a liability order which again is not valid as it is only a verbal agreement and cannot be issued on paper by a court. You will be hard pushed to find any signatures on any of the documentation you receive, this is due to the fact that anyone signing these documents could be liable to prosecution for fraud, demanding money with menaces and other charges.The form used to draw up liability orders was removed in October 2003 in England and no substitute form was put in it's place. This is where the law becomes unenforceable. If any of you know of anybody who has been to prison for non-payment of council tax, then they have refused to pay openly and then they have consented to prison time unwittingly. Never refuse to pay it, simply ask the council for proof of your obligation to pay and also ask them for an invoice for VAT purposes. They will quote the Local Government and Finance Act 1992 but they won't quote the actual paragraph or section they are relying on because it doesn't exist. ALL councils are corporations and are registered with Dunn and Bradstreet and have a 9 digit Dunns number. Ask yourself "How can a government department (council) go bankrupt"? Please look into this further GB News and report on it.

      I once had this once. They sent all these summons things. None of which had a judges name and no signatures. It said it went to the well known court in Northampton. We were in Nottinghamshire. But all of these end up at some high court in Northampton. For some reason. And you never get the summons to appear just the decision. After the so called case has been heard. That court turns out to be a warehouse complex in that city. However they said I had to pay them court fees for this and the letter or summons that they sent. And court fees. The letter was just a copy of their letter. No difference. Except on pink paper instead of the usual white paper. So I went to pay the tax owed and paid it at their offices. They asked for the court fees and I refused. Asking instead which court it was and I’ll go there and pay. They said I was not allowed to do that. So I asked again. Is it magistrates or county high court. Again I can’t do that they said. So I pointed out the letters were not from any court they were just usual council letters on pink paper not official court documents. So not paying. I went to both courts we have, neither had any record of the case I was referring to. I never paid the court fees. This was over 35 years ago. Still not paid. Nothing heard since.

I accept the Police precept as a necessary evil, same with fire service, although I wholly disagree with the concept of Police, Crime and Fire Commissioners. Part of my council tax goes to the parish council and town council, why? It took me five years to get a pot hole / flooding problem resolved outside my house. We should only pay for the services we require or use. I also wonder how much of my council tax is spent on housing illegal migrants in my area.

      We have a dozen of 1-2 bedroom bungalows and a few 3-4 bedroom 2 story houses accomodated by grannies mostly and a few granpas. The council sends gardeners every week to cut their grass and maintain their garden and exteriors. It's a massive waste of money and since when does a granny need a 4 bedroom house? They never asked me if I wanted to finance those elderly people being incapable to maintain their house because the council decided to put them there? Send them back to their families and let them take care of their own blood, not me. Give out those council homes to young adults who want to start their life, there's so many of them not being able to get out of their family homes due to harsh job market and crap economy. My house is semi detached and is connected to a granny's home who has the gutter blocked and the bathroom pipe gets blocked all the time and it makes my wall also wet, because the pipe is probably leaking onto the wall. It's been 6 months and they are still on the way to 'investigate'. There is a Czech family living 3 houses away on the same row as my house and they heat their house with wet wood they take in from their garden shed and it generates massive amount of smoke that settles down and stinks so badly for an hour until the wood gets dry from burning, but still quite noticeable afterwards for a few hours. We have to keep out an eye for them starting to use the fireplace as soon as we see their chimney being active we have to shut the windows asap to prevent our bedding and clothes absorbing the smoke odour. Sometimes we can still smell the odour with closed Windows if the wind blow the smoke directly to our house. Me and other people on the street have been reporting him past 3 years and the council once sent me a sheet asking me to monitor and make notes of the property owner using their chimney, asking for date, period and what they burn (am I a fucking detective?). It also stated "if they don't hear back for a month they will drop the case". So I complied and sent it back within a month filled out as they asked. NO FUCKIN ANSWER since. Utterly useless bunch of tossers.

      Yep. I do this. Had plenty of 'missed' calls that never call back or text instead, so they weren't important then.

    My council is owed 24 million in unpaid council tax from 2019, still chasing it. After 6 years, it's written off. They admit they are not going to recover most of it. Sod the corrupt system don't pay it.

    People will stop paying. We're going back to the 80's. I feel a poll tax moment on the horizon.

    Local councils’ budgets from the government have got less & less over the last few decades! They have then put the council tax up year on year all while cutting back on the services they are supposed to provide 😡
