Stop the
Government’s
Tax
Bombshell
The Labour Government is cutting £84m a year from Wandsworth’s budget, and forcing the Council to hike council tax to make up the difference. That means a Band D home will need to pay £958 more a year from next April.
The decision on your council's budget is coming in...
A Band D home would pay an extra £80 a month.
People in Wandsworth are already among the highest taxed in the country. We are asking the Government to change their mind before Wandsworth Council has to officially set the rate of council tax on 3rd March.
The government cut is more than the annual cost of bin collections, recycling, street cleaning, and libraries combined, three times over.
The council has already found significant savings, and has officially challenged the Government to think again. No borough should be forced to absorb sharp reductions of this scale. It puts services at risk, and disproportionately impacts the poorest residents.
Please sign our petition to ask Labour to think again.
