Not necessarily, but if the government chooses not to shift that money to the council where they are studying, that's hardly the fault of the students. 5 hours ago, Mr Bloke said: Oh dear! More rubbish... ... so WHY don't THEY have to pay on their second "home" just like everyone else? How much council tax do people who work away from home and stay in digs in the week pay to the council where they work, so exactly the same situation. Answer - nothing.

I imagine some of those lower earners who are most definitely not net contributors will be amongst those bleating on here about students and council tax.

Or even motoring in general as there seems to be a lot of income from the motorist. As one of the drivers who sticks to the rules, never speeds, always drives with care and attention, is courteous to other road users and almost never parks in Disabled Bays I honestly wouldn't know. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Show me a driver that claims they never speed, always follows the rules and always has full attention on the road and using a mirror I'll show you a liar.

It's impossible not to. Again, anyone who claims they don't is a liar or worse, delusional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
