SO any pensioner who also happens to be a war widow like myself, a decrease in council tax must appear to be a positive move.
However, I feel it becomes an insult when the reduction is the princely sum of one penny.
I was appalled and incensed by my windfall, and even more so when I fully considered the cost of my reduction. Postage, paperwork etc, and from a council who is supposed to be short of money.
