Default How much has your Council tax risen?

Ours has gone up by 5.5 per cent, 150.00 extra a year, 62.00 of that for social care which I agree with, not the rest though

No change here. I have no idea why. Not that I want to pay more but the council is flat ****ing broke and it's really starting to show... I'd have accepted a 5% increase if it was actually being spent in meaningful ways.

Yeah same here although mine is labour in some ways I think it would be better to give a small rise every year rather than hitting people with such huge increases in one hit. I can't remember the last time I got a 5.5 per cent payrise
