Does anyone believe this?

I read The Telegraph's expose of the news that "Ministers have admitted that Government inspectors are building a secret database that will eventually cover all 23 million homes in England.". Old news of course but still I found this line amusing "A DCLG spokesman said: "We have made clear many times there are no plans for a revaluation, and there is no revaluation by stealth. This means no one can be penalised for improving their home, off-street parking or having a scenic view. "The Valuation Office Agency is simply maintaining an accurate council tax valuation list."

Does anyone want to lay odds?

I for one certainly don't believe the official line on this. It is all of a piece with the numerous other class war based 'politics of envy' that we have all seen emanate from this Government during the past decade.
