Martin Geddes' latest round of email exchange with Durham County Council over non-payment of Council Tax is presented for our entertainment and our education.
Since it is asserted that Council Tax does not actually entail a legal obligation to pay it, Martin is putting the system through its paces for us all to learn from, thereby in my view performing a significant public service.
I doubt that "the system" will agree:
"This is an existential crisis for the councils, legal system, politics, and government"
"It is part of a far wider scam whereby the state is harvesting all of us for taxes"
" ... the public is wising up to how corrupt and unconstitutional administrative courts are just a front for organised crime ... "
So, no pressure ...
