Ellie Chowns has highlighted concerns about the current Council Tax system, describing it as outdated and unfair for many households.
She pointed out that Council Tax places a disproportionate burden on those with lower incomes, with some of the poorest households paying a larger share of their income than the wealthiest. Ellie emphasised that reform is long overdue and called for a more equitable approach to local taxation that better reflects people’s ability to pay.
Ensuring a fairer system is an important step towards tackling inequality and supporting households facing cost of living pressures.
