Nothing about us without us is for us.

Joined June 2016
Although further change is needed, we are proud to have led the way in council tax reform working with @SalfordCouncil to transform the ways in which ppl are supported & debt is collected. Changes that saw the council take an extra £5 million in council tax without prosecuting 🙌
🧵Council Tax reform is long overdue. The system is outdated and regressive. Our new briefing calls for a fair, progressive system based on today’s property values. 1/4
