WITH reference to the letter by M Robbins about council tax (Nov. 16).
Who says the council can charge an extra £50 for its own incompetence? I hope M Robbins refuses to pay this extra as it is obviously a scam. I doubt if its even legal to try to extort extra money for a set amount.
If M Robbins is threatened by the council it should be reported to the police as attempted theft. It's very important that people do not give in to this sort of bullying, but this type of thing can be expected in Blair's police state!
