This episode dives into the broken realities of council tax, the inequalities it entrenches, and the housing crisis it perpetuates. We explore bold alternatives like the Proportional Property Tax and Land Value Tax, dissect the political inertia blocking reform, and uncover how speculative practices like land banking are stalling progress. This is a no-nonsense discussion on why the current system fails—and what can be done to build a fairer, more sustainable future.
