The domestic rate in the United Kingdom was abolished in 1990, replaced by the Community Charge, commonly known as the "poll tax." The change was part of a broader reform of local government financing. The poll tax was highly controversial and faced significant opposition, leading to its eventual repeal in 1991 and the reintroduction of a new system based on council tax in 1993.
