Council Tax LOLs

Article in the Evening Post about how NCC took a disabled man to court over £1.75 unpaid council tax, thus adding £60 costs to the debt. Read it and weep.

The article says that the bloke was already paying back an earlier year's council tax debt but NCC still went ahead with pursuing this further debt at the same time. This is an issue that advice agencies have been bringing up with NCC since Poll Tax days.

Council Tax now comes under Lisa Black's empire. Go figure.
