How much more council tax are YOU set to pay? Table shows how Londoners will be forced to pay inflation-busting levy in 2024 as Sadiq Khan prepares to hike bills by almost \u00a340 for second year in a row<\/h1>\n

Londoners are being forced to pay an inflation-busting council tax rate in 2024 after\u00a0 mayor Sadiq Khan said hill hike council tax bills by almost \u00a340.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Labour politician plans to increase the adult social care precept, which is added to the overall council tax amounts, by\u00a08.6%, which is almost double the rate of inflation for last month.\u00a0<\/p>\n

This will mean that the average council tax bill for a Band D property will increase by \u00a337.26 to \u00a3471.40, with the change expected to come into force just weeks before the London mayoral election.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Band D council tax bill has risen by 70 per cent since 2017, a year after Mr Khan was elected London Mayor in May 2016, when it was almost \u00a3200 less at\u00a0\u00a3280.02.\u00a0<\/p>\n

MailOnline has put together a graphic showing how the levy has soared over the years that Mr Khan has been in office. Have a look below to see how much you’ll be forced to pay for living in the capital.\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Sadiq Khan plans to increase the adult social care precept, which is added to the overall council tax amounts, by 8.6%, which is almost double the rate of inflation for last month<\/p>\n

Tory mayoral candidate Susan Hall said earlier this week: ‘Sadiq Khan is treating Londoners like walking cash machines, wasting money on spin doctors and PR stunts, while raising his council tax by over 70 per cent since he was elected.<\/p>\n

‘He’s already fleecing Londoners with his unfair ULEZ expansion, raking in millions off the backs of the lowest earners. We cannot afford another four years of Sadiq Khan.’<\/p>\n

Cllr Alessandro Georgiou, a Tory who sits on Enfield Council, added: ‘Knife crime, sexual offences and robberies are all through the roof. Not only content with state of crime in London, Khan also wants to make us all poorer.’\u00a0<\/p>\n

In a statement announcing the increase Mr Khan said: ‘Against the backdrop of the government’s refusal to provide enough support for London’s essential public services, I have no viable alternative but to use all the levers at my disposal to provide urgent funding from City Hall, particularly for the police.<\/p>\n

‘The Government has announced that policing in London is set to get just over half the percentage increase in funding compared to the rest of the country.\u00a0<\/p>\n

‘How can this be right when the Met has had to undertake a huge amount of national policing activities over recent months without any additional funding from the Government?<\/p>\n

‘This is putting an enormous strain on an already stretched police service. That’s why I’m having to step in with additional funding from City Hall to ensure the police in London can bear down on violent crime, continue to reform and make our city safer.<\/p>\n

‘We are going through a challenging time in London due to the state of the national economy, the impact of austerity and the cost-of-living crisis.\u00a0<\/p>\n

‘But I’m confident that this budget will not only support and improve our public services in our city, but help us to continue building a fairer, greener and safer London for everyone.’<\/p>\n
