EARLIER this year, YouGov polling for Tax Justice Scotland found a staggering 83% of Scots want a fairer system to replace Council Tax, with more than half supporting political party commitments to reform it during the next Parliament.
John Swinney hinted at abolishing Council Tax at the end of May, saying the Deputy First Minister had already started work on reforming the system. The SNP have been pledging Council Tax reform in some form or other since before first taking power in 2007.
