Stop 5% council tax rise

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

I would like the government to intervene and stop council tax rise as the economy has not been hard since 2020. People are struggling and a 5% council tax rise is unfair as no one got a 5% salary increase
It is inhuman to increase taxes for already struggling population. People are barely surviving and a 5% tax rise is significant
