Don't know where you live but as Beth gets high rate DLA ( it hasn't changed over yet) we get disability level discount on council tax in Scotland which effectively means we pay a grade less than would otherwise.

Poll Tax? Haven't heard of that since Maggie T.

It's Council tax now, and has been for years.
