The recent protest by ACORN highlighted the growing concern over Haringey Council's increasing reliance on bailiffs for council tax debt collection, raising fears among residents.
Protesters emphasized the need for reform in the way Haringey Council handles unpaid debts, suggesting a shift toward in-house debt collection services as a more humane option.
The rise in referred council tax cases to bailiffs has alarmed community organizations, prompting calls for Haringey Council to explore alternative collection methods to prevent harming vulnerable residents.
Demonstrators at Tottenham Town Hall reiterated the urgent need for change, claiming that the council's current practices disproportionately affect lower-income families and individuals, highlighting their campaign's urgency.
