Low Council Tax

  • Tweet
Tuesday, 23 April, 2019
Council tax

The local elections on May 2nd will decide how your local council services are run – and how much you pay for them.

Conservative councillors protect the services local people rely on. While keeping their tax low.

Did you know that Conservative councils charge less council tax than Labour and Lib Dems?

The difference is actually pretty clear: on average, it's almost £100 less for a Band D home in Conservative-run areas.

 

What local Conservatives are delivering for residents

Let's take Bracknell Forest, for example, where the local team made savings of £11.6 million – without cutting a single service.

You can look at others where services have been better while taxes are kept low.

In Yorkshire's East Riding council, our local Conservative team is investing £16 million in flood defences.

In Cheshire East, our local team has pledged an extra £7 million for recycling this year.

And in St Albans, our the local team are saving residents £400,000 a year by having one of the best recycling rates in the country. 

 

Why this is so important

From parks to buses, bins to tax – councils run the services that affect people’s day-to-day lives.

This is about the issues that really matters to people locally. 

So on May 2nd, residents have the opportunity to keep their council tax low – and protect their services.
