Fund payments to energy customers to cover price rises by taxing oil companies

What the petition asks
We demand oil companies cover all or part of the rising fuel costs out of their yearly multi billions of pounds profits, rather than making the consumers pay with energy price increases. Introduce a new tax on these companies to fund a payment to customers to cover the rise in costs.
Stop passing the costs onto the consumers and get the big corporate oil companies to pay, rather than have them enjoying obscene multi billion pound profits at our expense.
