top rate of UK income tax is 40%, not 45%. which is much in line with taxation under the tory 1980's (back in the early 70's it was more like 70%).
the lib dems propose a new super-category of £100,000+ earners paying 50% income tax, to fund an abolishment of the council tax. which i heartily support because, as you say, council tax is a very regressive form of taxation.

From Glade website: The festival will begin at midday on Friday 16th July 2004 and run until 6pm on Sunday 18th July 2004, with the bars closing at 8pm on Sunday.
I need to buy a festival hat to protect my pasty white skin from the sun. What type of hat should I buy?

Council tax is paid on seperate dwellings and not individuals . Different sized properties are banded differently and each council sets their own council tax rates for each of the bands. So people with large houses can pay up to three times more than people in smaller houses.
As for income tax, there is no tax to pay on the first £4,745 of your annual income, 10% to pay on the next £2,020, 22% on any earnings up to 31,400 and 40% on anything you earn above that.
You also have to pay National Insurance which is 11% of any money earn't above £91 a week and less than £610, anything over £610 1% is taken as National Insurance. Although those of us who are self employed also have class 3 N.I. to pay as well.
I agree though, taxes in the UK are fucking stupid.
