Who do you trust with Council Tax?

Only the Conservatives can be trusted to keep Council Tax low for hard-working families in Suffolk. The facts are clear.

Conservatives have fulfilled an 8 year Council Tax Freeze from 1 April 2010 to 31 March 2018. Adding on the social care precept of £22.50 in 2016/17 and £56.97 in 2017/18, you are only paying 7% more than you were in 2009. [Average Band D property.]

The last time Labour ran Suffolk in conjunction with the Lib Dems, they increased tax in 8 years by a whopping 93%.

Labour would plan to spend most of the council's reserves and then money would run out. Future investment in schools, care homes, highway improvements, new road bridges, and commitment to apprenticeships would have to be sacrificed and ended. All Suffolk residents could then suffer from inflation-busting council tax increases and a rapid decline in essential services.
