    Sorry Graeme I just don't understand why Somerset Council does not collect ours not that it really matters. Anyway I was just trying to clear up the apparent misunderstanding that Parish councillors received payment. Back to the footie then Lol

    I'm very cynical of our parish council a read of their records/expenditure shows suspicion that they are as honest as a 3 pence coin.
    Are you sure your overall Council Tax payment has increased rather than the individual percentages of where it goes? Mine hasn't and I'm local to you

    Details here:

    Graeme, please accept my apologies for correcting you earlier, I did not realise that Wiltshire is a unitary and not a County Council which now explains why I was confused (not very hard). I take it you have no district council in your area then?

    No, the 4 districts and the County Council merged in April '09 to form a Unitary.

    Still separate though is Swindon Borough Council.
