Exactly. The only thing wrong with Council Tax is that the
value it's based on is not reassessed regularly, and that it's
set in bands instead of X-percent of assessed value.


Yes, it seems lost on the Daily Mail that for a given tax take a
revalation *on average* leaves no one worse off. Not revaluing
leaves some people paying more than they should. And adding a
couple of extra bands for higher-value properties would leave 95%
of people paying less.
