Conservative councils cost you less

New analysis suggests council tax in England is 6 per cent lower in real terms under Conservative-controlled councils, showing yet again that the Conservatives deliver better services with lower taxes for families and individuals.

Key facts
  • Council tax in Conservative councils is on average £93 less on a typical Band D home than in Labour councils and £137 less than in Liberal Democrat councils. 
  • Conservatives charge the lowest taxes - the lowest council tax in England in 2019-20 is Conservative Westminster at £755 on Band D (of which £321 is the Labour-set GLA precept), followed by Conservative Wandsworth at £770 on Band D. 
  • Under the last Labour Government, council tax doubled and in Labour-run Wales it has trebled. Bills are soaring by up to 10 per cent in Wales this year. 

Why this matters

Labour’s town halls cost you more and deliver worse local services. Up and down the country, it’s Conservative councillors and councils who have a proven record of managing taxpayers’ money wisely and providing better local services.
