Council tax is a tax on the user of the property, not the owner.? In fact it was also designed to protect the rich with the cheapest properties paying 1/3 that of the most expensive.? E.g. a 36sqm flat may cost ?1k/year, while a rambling Victorian pile with a couple of acres* will cost ?3k/year.? In addition no allowance is made for location leading to council tax rates in Westminster being almost a third those of Middlesbrough.? Finally the last valuation was carried out over twenty years ago, rendering the valuations essentially meaningless.

*More than a couple of acres & you probably start getting subsidies.
