Election Year or Fear!

Thanks AF. Over here, our version of council tax comes in 2 varieties. The property owner pays it on the property. The resident pays it too. Owner occupiers therefore pay both bits. Is that the same in the UK?

Occupiers whether owners or tenants are wholly responsible when the house is occupied. If the house is empty and not tenanted the owner is responsible, if empty because a tenant has vacated during a tenancy, the absentee tenant is responsible.
