Another election year and RCT Council only increasing Council Tax by1% Why dont they have an election every year?
Does the council think the people are that gullible? They must do because they keep voting Labour for higher council taxes and cuts in public services.
2022 RCTC Local Government election and the Labour-run council only put 1% council tax rise and the freezing of some fees and charges in Rhondda Cynon Taf have been approved. The budget proposals for 2022-23? Well, what did you expect there is an election due in May.

The local elections were in 2017 that’s why we had a smaller increase but it always goes up and never stays the same as the previous year.

It's only public money anyway, so who cares just add another 1% on your council tax.
