As I think I've said before, Mansion Tax is a misnomer which I think was originally cooked up by the press. Of course the sensible answer would be to go back to the rates, which were actually based on property value and (I believe but can't verify) much higher than today's Council Tax, which only provides a fraction of what Local Government needs to run services. A set of higher Council Tax bands would be a neat way of doing it, so I actually agree with Richard (shock horror) |
