I think that the single persons council tax discount should be set at 50% reduction instead of 25%.

Background
I feel this should be done due to the cost of living, increases in tax and the pressure of single people and single parents face.
I believe we have the same bills as everyone else but with only 1 wage coming in.
I think the single person discount should be set at 50% which would be fair considering you are single and not in a couple.
