Council tax is optional. United Kingdom Supreme Court on 24/01/2017 in Miller & Anor, R (on the application of) v Secretary of State for Exiting the European Union [2017] UKSC 5 at paragraph 46 main points states:
1. By virtue of the prohibition Parliament has imposed on the making of any provision imposing taxation contained within Schedule 2;1(1)(a) of the European Communities Act 1972 the provisions of the Local Government Finance Act 1992 imposing the Council Tax are invalid and of no effect in the law of the UK.
2. By virtue of the prohibition Parliament has imposed on the Crowns authority or power to confer power to legislate contained within Schedule 2;1(1)(c) of the European Communities Act 1972 the provisions of the Local Government Finance Act 1992 imposing the Council Tax are invalid and of no effect in the law of the UK.
3. As the provisions of the Local Government Finance Act 1992 are not provisions of law, there is no ‘obligation in law’ to pay the Council Tax, and an individual can lawfully withhold payment of the ‘Council Tax’.

When the majority of Inhabitants of council areas become aware that the corporate councils do NOT have any force of law behind their demands, are private corporations that impose their 'rules & regulations' upon those that accept the Legalese titles of "resident" or "occupier", and are conning local people out of their hard-earned money and assets to pay for bankruptcy, private loans and private pensions, they will probably want to withhold further payments. When they do so in large numbers, the corporate councils will have to change their rotten & criminal, unlawful & undemocratic system (that has ruined millions of lives), or face total collapse and prosecution!
