Council Tax is broken and the government knows it. But instead of fixing it? They’re just shuffling the same unfair system around. 🤯 It’s time for real fairness. Share if you’re ready to fix this broken system with a proportional property tax.

Yes, this is spot on — well worth two minutes of your time. Land Value Tax is a compelling long-term solution, and as Fairer Share’s blog highlights, a Proportional Property Tax could be a practical and politically viable stepping stone to get us there." fairershare.org.uk/leading-lvt-ca…

We all know Council Tax is broken. But instead of fixing it, the government’s just shifting the burden. Same unfair system, different households. It’s time for a fair fix: 0.48% of real home value. No guesswork. No loopholes. Just justice. thetimes.com/article/7b5a89…

A proportional property tax is a simple and fair way of raising revenue based on 0.48% of CURRENT property value. The key fact here is 75% of people across England would see their tax REDUCED compared to what they currently pay in council tax. #counciltax

Yes, Will Dunn is spot on. "Council tax aggressively redistributes wealth from the poor to the rich. It's a significant cost to people on low incomes – in the past two decades, thousands of prison sentences have been handed out to people who haven’t been able to pay it." (1/4)

Fantastic from Will Dunn who hits the nail on the head 🔨 "Council tax aggressively redistributes wealth from the poor to the rich. It's a significant cost to people on low incomes... thousands of prison sentences have been handed out to people who haven’t been able to pay it."

What's the wealth pool we're talking about when we call for a flat rate tax of 0.48% on property? This one. £9.1 trillion dwarfs the stock markets, wealth tax targets and existing council tax value. And remember: this would see 75% of households council tax REDUCED 🤯

Something's got to give - council tax arrears in England now stand at £6.6 BILLION 🤯 It's time to get realistic - a proportional property tax would see a flat rate levied no matter if you live in Hartlepool or Kensington. This is ESSENTIAL if we're serious about levelling up.
