Poll Tax within Scotland

What was the Poll Tax and why was it introduced into Scotland first?

It was a system of taxation which was an individual charge that everyone had to pay. It was introduced in replacement of domesticates in Scotland from 1989. It was introduced to Scotland prior to being introduced to England and Wales first because it wasn't conservative and they trialled the Poll Tax because they knew they weren't going to loose many votes due to Scotland being an unhealthy country at the time.
