Did think the poll tax was harsh .. particularly if there were more than one adult in the house, however, as myself being one adult plus young child never thought the old rates system was fair either, as was paying the same as 'more adult' occupied houses.

Think the council tax now is pretty fair ... but that is because there is just me and get 25% discount. Still doesn't seem fair for 2 adults only though as against 4 adults in the next house. Never will be perfect, but council tax is a reasonable compromise.
