Side issue..

Poll tax or the present form of council tax, the hilarious events of the last few weeks remain..

Those who had gone under the radar to avoid being chased for the money they owe decided to go back on the electoral register to vote. The councils then carried out their statutory duties when it comes to tax avoidance

Salmond says the tax cheats shouldn't have to pay because they revealed themselves as patriots.... (Any MSP who votes for such a measure, any councillor for that matter could find themselves surcharged if they try writing off debt of bodies not under their direct control. See The Clay Cross "martrys" for details.

On this occasion, a sarcastic quip from yours truly would be superflous to the satire reality has thrown us.
