The money goes on having separate collection systems in each council area, as well as the expensive Council Tax benefit system.

We estimate it costs about 4 times as much to collect £1 in Council Tax as to collect £1 in Income Tax: and costs will increase if the Government decide to proceed with the Council Tax Revaluation.

Council Tax benefit was designed to help the poorest people with their bills. But it simply doesn’t work.

A third of families entitled to Council Tax benefit don’t claim – so have to struggle with their bills instead.

And the situation’s worse for pensioners: approximately 1.7 million don’t claim the money they’re entitled to.

These take-up rates are way below those for other benefits.

The main reasons for the dismal rate of take-up of Council Tax Benefits are that people don’t know about the benefit, and if they do they’re put off by the complexity of the application process – there can be as many as fifty pages of forms to fill in!

We believe that England needs a fairer system of local taxation. The Lyons Report highlights the fact that “fair taxation is based on ability to pay or income.” Thus, a local income tax would achieve the goal of developing a fairer local tax system.

A local based income tax would remove the unfair burden that is currently placed on those least able to pay. Such a tax “could significantly reduce the burden of local taxes on those groups with the lowest average incomes, notably pensioners and lone parents.”

Furthermore, the Lyons report asserts that it would be possible to implement a locally based income tax. “A local income tax could be feasible in England and could viably replace all or part of council tax, or operate alongside it.”

We here at www.NoCouncilTax.com are NOT opposed to paying a “Local Community Charge” PROVIDING is that its fair, that its based upon the services you actually use and of course based upon your ability to pay!

Councils and The CSA are among the corporations who issue their own summonses, as we reported in our artlcle “How to not get summonsed for non payment of council tax”. Here is our recent article and the rulings from Archbold which can be used in court.

Council Tax Summonses

Our article about The Birkenhead Lawful Rebellion at a council tax bankruptcy hearing has once again highlighted the need to get the important points accross.

As we reported over a year ago the summonses sent out for council tax are printed by the council and the court is hired for the liability “hearings”. This is a crime under the Administration of justice Act and also fraud and perjury if these summonses bear a crown seal, which all we have seen seem to do.

The court is hired by the council for the hearings and then the councils send out “Notifications” of a liability order , again printed by themselves. This means of course that no liability is recorded by the court. This article from way back in 2009 seems to be a damage limitation exercise stating that on some occasions the summonses were not properly issued. This is a result of what a few pople were doing challenging their local councils on issuing their own summonses.

No court is going to take on the issue that all summonses issued by councils are invalid, defective and fraudulent. There must however be one judge out there who will make a legitimate ruling on this. As the country is bankrupt , does it matter? Judges have recently been forced into accepting remedies which previously they would not have dreamed the public would find out about!

Here is the link from The Ministry of Justice website

Here are important rulings which can be used.

a summons must be issued in accordance with Justice Clerks Rules 2005 (S.I.2005 No.545) The granting of summonses is more than a rubber stamping exercise. The person issuing the summons must be authorised to do so and must scrutinise the information to satisfy themselves that the requirements are met and a summons properly granted. See Tesco Stores Ltd [1981] Q.B.470,DC.

When the (QUANGO) CSA or the council won’t give you any information about your court case (Disclosure)

Jespers v Belgium

Jespers v Belgium, ante and in the “equality of arms” principle imposes on prosecuting and investigating authorities an obligation to disclose any material in their possession, or to which they could gain access, which may assist the accused in exonerating himself or in obtaining a reduction in sentence. This principle extends to material which might undermine the credibility of a prosecution witness (ibid.,para.58) Non disclosure of evidence relevant to credibility may also raise an issue under Article 6(3)(d: Edwards v UK., 15 E.H.R.R Op. Comm., para 50)

The prosecutions duty of disclosure: Archbold 16-83, page 1755 criminal pleading evidence & Practice.

“The Court is required to provide this information to the parties in the case, and any others having an interest in the case (i.e. witnesses etc.) by virtue of the judgement in the case ‘Regina v Felixstowe’ justices ex parte Leigh and another, Queens bench division c 1984/5. Held by Lord Justice Watson that :- There is a right to know who sits in judgement, and denial of that right is unlawful, unwarranted and inimical to the proper administration of justice, further that there is no such person known to Law as ‘the anonymous JP’.”

This intelligent fellow, corners and beautifully “Boxes in” the Council Tax employee and she tries desperately to fight her corner but just in the same way that Council employees always try to talk to you down “Mr. Saunders” tells her exactly what it is.

The Council Tax employee keeps going back to the same old rhetoric time and time again and she cannot deviate. It’s clear that their training never expected us to find out how to expose their lies and treachery.

And as usual they don’t want to get to a remedy they simply want to get off the phone and send in the heavies. Typical Thuggery Behaviour!

The site that he’s talking about is of course “www.Nocounciltax.com” and he even tries to convince our caller that the decision made by Wirral Council to withdraw in the Roger Hayes case was made of “someones own back” and that “he wouldn’t like to be in her shoes”

What a load of tosh! – All decisions to withdraw from Council Tax cases are made by the councils own legal advisors who are all trained solicitors or barristers retained (At great expense to you and I) by the council. If the decision was made to withdraw by the council then it was made because they knew they were on a hiding to nothing! It’s that simple.

It’s staggering the depths these “legal departments” will go to and the lies they will tell just to try and get you to pay the council tax thats keeping them in a job.

Enjoy the call!

Bailiff accepts FEE SCHEDULE and sees unrebutted, uncontested and undiputed offer to pay in full in an acknowledged NOTICE in front of witnesses

Roger Hayes, chairman of the British Constitution Group, applied at Wirral Magistrates’ Court to have Jon Murphy arrested following Monday’s demonstration.

Mr Hayes, of Wallasey, believes police should have actually helped members of the public arrest the judge.

Yesterday, his bankruptcy hearing for non-payment of council tax ended in uproar when his supporters – several hundred of whom had massed outside – stormed Birkenhead County Court and “arrested” Judge Michael Peake.

Protestors from the public gallery charged at Mr Peake to make a civil arrest chanting “arrest that judge”.

Police scrambled over court benches to control the near riot and one protester shouted “seal the court.”

Another sat in the judge’s chair and declared Mr Hayes be “released”.

Deafening cheers and chants could be heard from the crowd outside the courts and demonstrators used mobile phones to film arrests being made.

Today Mr Hayes told District Judge Lomax at magistrates’ court: “In county court, we arrested Judge Peake for treason and contempt of court.

“I called upon the police and members of the public to help me in this but the police acted incorrectly and arrested lawful individuals.

“We now want the chief constable to appear in court to explain the actions of his officers. They acted unlawfully by rescuing the judge. The rescue and treason is a criminal offence.

“We expect the police to do their job properly and that is the responsibility of the chief constable.”

A Merseyside Police spokesman said: “Merseyside Police is aware of an application for a warrant heard at Birkenhead Magistrates court this morning (8 March)”

Just as the 2009 town hall confrontations gave birth to the modern incarnation of the Tea Party in the United States, with the organization having its early origins in the 2007 End the Fed protests involving Ron Paul supporters, could yesterday’s events herald the beginning of a massive tax revolt movement set to sweep the UK?

There were chaotic scenes as around 600 activists from the British Constitution Group massed around Birkenhead county court chanting “freedom,” and “arrest that judge” as police with riot dogs attempted to hold them back.

Protesters stormed the courtroom and civilly arrested Judge Michael Peake before escorting him from the building. Peake was eventually wrestled away from protesters by police as the activists chanted, “Do your job” to the police. Dozens more police arrived to set up blockades and numerous protesters were arrested.

Peake was ruling on a case involving Roger Hayes, former member of UKIP, who has refused to pay council tax, both as a protest against the government’s treasonous activities in sacrificing Britain to globalist interests and as a result of Hayes clearly proving that council tax is illegal.

Hayes has embarked on an effort to legally prove that the enforced collection of council tax by government is unlawful because no contract has been agreed between the individual and the state. His argument is based on the sound legal principle that just like the council, Hayes can represent himself as a third party in court and that “Roger Hayes” is a corporation and must be treated as one in the eyes of the law.

“As he emerged from the court surrounded by his supporters, Mr Hayes said: ‘The judges are breaking the law in their own courts. I asked him [Mr Peake] if he was serving under his oath of office,” reports the Daily Mail.

“I asked three times for him to confirm this and he refused, so I civilly arrested the judge and I called upon some people in the court to assist me in this,” Hayes said.

“They were acting lawfully and the police should not have arrested them.”

“Made up of people from across the UK, the marchers say they are exerting their “ancient right to lawful Rebellion under Article 16 of Magna Carta,” reported the Wirral Globe.

Raymond St. Clair, who organised the Birkenhead protest said:

“Today was day one. This is going to happen again and again and again. We have sent a message to this court as one nation and one voice until change comes.”

In a statement carried on the group’s website, Common Law is cited as a means through which lawful rebellion will be conducted to address “political treason and criminality being imposed on the law-abiding people of the British Isles.”

“It is clear, beyond all reasonable doubt and with evidence that would stand up in any properly-conducted court of law, that an influential network of rogue British politicians across the parties is unlawfully involved in carrying out the hidden strategies and agendas of a centuries-old, secretive and criminal global elite who are seeking the imposition of unlawful global governance on the unsuspecting peoples of the world. Known broadly by researchers as the New World Order (NWO) – though some refer to them as the Illuminati or Zionists (please note that this does not mean Judaism) – the modus operandi of these powerful traitors and criminals is now clear for all to see,” reads the statement.

The group lists the Committee of 300, the Bilderberg Group, the Trilateral Commission, the Council on Foreign Relations, and the Club of Rome as just some of the organizations who control “Subservient and compartmentalised national networks of influential politicians, industrialists, campaigning groups, charities and key individuals in trusted positions.”

The British Constitution Group and the movement of “lawful rebellion” is strongly supported by Brian Gerrish, a former Royal Navy Lieutenant Commander who publishes the UK Column newspaper, which documents how Britain is being destroyed by globalist interests as well as the insidious “Common Purpose” organization which has infiltrated every level of British society.

Yesterday’s events will send a clear shot across the bow of the British government, which is currently engaged in aggressive austerity measures involving cuts to public services as well as tax hikes. In March 1990, London was hit with massive tax riots in scenes dubbed the “Battle of Trafalgar,” as demonstrators raged against the infamous poll tax that was eventually abolished after millions of Brits refused to pay it, a sequence of events that many attributed to the downfall of Margaret Thatcher who resigned as Prime Minister in November the same year.

Poll tax was replaced with council tax, which took into account people’s ability to pay based on the value of their home. However, council tax rates have consistently risen over the rate of inflation even as the British people feel more and more misrepresented by the national government based in London and local governments that have been completely consumed by the agenda of Common Purpose to the detriment of their own constituents.

The police need to be reminded that it is their responsibility to investigate allegations of serious fraud in public institutions, including councils.

Mr Mothersole, the Chief Executive, needs to be reminded that he has a duty to his council tax payers to ensure that council funds are used for the benefit of taxpayers, and not diverted into the bank account of secretive mind bending charities.

For years we have now been campaigning in a number of cases to get these corrupt councils to produce a “True and Original Copy” of one of these alleged “Liability Orders”.

Here’s the scam that the councils are trying to pull off!

1. They Issue a summons to you for not paying council tax.
2. When you go to court they try and trick you by meeting with you first in a little room to try and get you to admit “liability” for the council tax by getting you to agree to pay so much per month. This admission of liability on your part means that they can secure a “liability order” without you even entering the court!
3. If you don’t agree to pay then they issue a liability order anyway.
4. Now, our research shows that a “Proper Court Order” MUST have certain things on it and these are:
   1. A Wet ink Signature of the Judge or Justices Clerk who signed it on the day (Not a facsimilie signature)
   2. The Royal Identifier (i.e. Royal Coat Of Arms)
   3. Once the court date has passed they send a “Notice Of A Liability Order”

And this is where the scam exposes itself …

If the councils had a True and Original Liability Order (as per above) then why wouldn’t they send you a copy of that instead of sending you a piece of paper typed up on Microsoft Word claiming that they have a liability order.

A number of us have not been paying council for the last two years successfully because when challenged over this LAWFULLY because we back them into a corner! Here’s how …

1. We conditionally Accept their offer to pay council tax upon proof of claim (In other words they have to prove a number of points) – if they don’t we withold payment.
2. When they send a summons (Invitation to attend their place of business) we ignore it.
3. When they send a “NOTICE OF LIABILITY ORDER” we write back and send them a “NOTICE OF REBUTTAL” and “NOTICE OF REQUEST FOR TRUE AND ORIGINAL COPY OF COURT LIABILITY ORDER” which of course must meet the requirements stated earleir.
4. They then send in the bailiffs who we serve with bailiff packs (Download from www.freedomrebels.co.uk) and issue them with Bills for attending (we also video them and put them on youtube!)
5. Eventually the bailiffs get bored with that game and hand the thin back to the Council.
6. The council eventually send a letter telling you they will send you to court “for committal to prison” proceedings.
7. We then send them a letter which basically says this …

“If you are going to bring the matter into a criminal court and are going to rely on the alleged liability order in your case then the law and due process dictates that you must send me a copy of the TRUE and ORIGINAL LIABILITY ORDER, with all the correct attributes thereupon.

The law concerning disclosure dictates that you, the council, are required to do this at least 14 days before the hearing.

Therefore, if you are going to rely on this document we will bring it up in court that you have vexatiously withehld it at all times and therefore this matter and the valuable time of the court would not have been wasted and also because you, the council are required to disclose it 14 days before the hearing you will have no problem sending it to me now … will you?”

Normally at this point … the council go away because you have backed them into a corner lawfully. They know they can’t go into a court and rely on a piece of paper which …

BY THE ADMISSION OF PLYMOUTH COUNCIL … DOESN’T EXIST ON PAPER!

They also know that you are going to counter claim against them for being vexatious.

Here is the document from Plymouth Council telling us all that these Liability order are non existent!

So there you have it! Proof undeniable, from the council themselves that they don’t ACTUALLY have a Liability Order that conforms to any sort of Lawful requirement! And yet, on the back of this scam they creaming Billions from us all!

We believe that for this unlawful council tax abomination there is a truth in the words of Rutger Hauer’s character Roy Batty in the film Bladerunner!

“Time … To Die!”
