Licensing renewal price surge for 2025!

I’ve just received the email from Newcastle City Council stating selective licensing is to increase by over 50% from when I paid mine in 2022, upto £1,000! It was bad enough that once a licence was provided it wasn’t prorated, effectively I’ll have had mine for 3yrs come April 2025 & now they want another £1,000!! Are the council in attendance on 7th Nov to explain the rationale behind the increase, whilst explaining to landlords how the monies collected to date have been spent? Absolute disgrace IMHO!
