Reform UK Councils to Increase Taxes Despite Promises
8 councils under Reform UK's control are set to hike taxes, despite the party's promise to cut tax bills.
A budget consultation for next year opens the door to council tax rises up to a maximum 5 per cent.
This move comes after Nigel Farage's promises to cut wasteful spending and lower taxes in councils under the party's control.
- Reform UK councils are struggling to find huge cuts in public spending.
- The cost of children's and adult social care is spiralling, leaving no other option but to raise council tax to fund services.
This decision is seen as a broken promise from Reform UK, as they have realised the reality of governing and the need to increase taxes to fund essential services.
