Join the Campaign

To be an effective lobby group it is essential to be able to show sold support for the issue.

Over the last few years the NoMoreRates campaign has achieved wide publicity on the rating issues and I have been able to refer to the vast number of emails and letters I have received in support of our objectives.

Now we need to show our strength.

With the failure of successive governments to address these matters it is now necessary to build a comprehensive list of supporters and the best and quickest way of doing that is to create a data base of those supporters.

That is why we are asking you to join up today.

This will also allow us to communicate news and opinions to you – and allow you to send you views and opinions to us.

In this way we will build a strong body of support and opinion which will, in the end, force both central and local government to heed our demands and bring about changes.

TWO Objectives

  • To replace the present system of council rates with a new, fairer system, which reflects both services provided and the ‘ability to pay’ of various sectors in the community.
  • To develop a system of restraining council expenditure to levels which the community approves of, and which the community believes it can afford.
