Title: Barnsley council on the ball
Post by: STEMO on 27 April 2022, 11:39:15
Got our £150 council tax rebate this morning, the one to help with fuel bills. Been reading in the news that some councils are aiming to have it paid by September, but even that seems to be a vague estimate.
Opti, you are not getting it, it's only for us poor people that live in bands A-D.

It's to save me having to burn my furniture to keep warm, Mick. You should know how us pensioners are suffering with the cost of living crisis  :'(

Got ours earlier this week, all good straight back into bank.

Apparently our council are also giving it all back to bands E-G or something like that. Not bad for a council that cries about no money, pays themselves far too much yet let’s roads, parks and anything else go to scrap, tried to charge to people to go into what used to be free public spaces and almost went bankrupt a couple of years ago. Yes, this is Bexley Council for anyone interested
