Q&A 13.04.26: Trust dates, council tax & enforcement

This No Tax for War Q&A Zoom session took place on 13 April 2026 and was hosted by Rich with Chris, Hugh, and others responding to questions. Key topics include:

  • Clarification of which date to use for a trust deed for the 2026-2027 tax year
  • The legal basis of the No Tax for War trust under the Recognition of Trusts Act 1987 and why it’s important to refer to this legislation in all correspondence
  • How council tax flows from local authority collection fund accounts into the central government Consolidated Fund 
  • Managing enforcement actions by councils, HMRC, bailiffs and enforcement agents, and strategies for responding to liability and charging orders. The No Tax for War team reminded participants that individuals act always at their own risk and should be prepared to respond to all correspondence and attend court proceedings. 

The next Q&A will be on Monday 27 April at 7pm.

Definition: Fiduciary

A fiduciary is person or organisation in a position of trust who has a legal duty to act in good faith and in the best interests of another party, such as a trustee for beneficiaries of a trust.

Placing your home in a separate trust

Creating a distinct legal trust specifically for your primary residence. This ensures that your home is no longer legally “owned” by you as an individual, but held in trust for your benefit. Doing so may offer protection against enforcement action by councils or creditors, especially if you are challenging council tax or other state demands. It is a precautionary step to reduce the risk of property seizure or legal intimidation. Legal advice is recommended before proceeding.

Definition: Trusts

A trust is a legal tool that ring-fences your money until certain conditions are met. The Make War History Taxation Trust is a conditional, revocable trust to withhold tax until it’s proven it won’t be used unlawfully — for example, to fund war. 

Definition: Promissory Note

A Promissory Note is a legally binding promise to pay — but only once the trust’s conditions are met. It shows you’re not refusing to pay tax outright, just demanding it be used lawfully. This adds weight to your position and ensures the legal system recognises your intent.
