Temporarily remove VAT from all fuel Domestic and for transportation

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Given the current situation simply remove VAT from all energy sources bills
As a temporary measure to help everyone weather the current onslaught of price increases

As prices are going up at alarming levels (50% for domestic fuel alone) it seems the tax take will already be more than high so removing all VAT would help the vast majority of citizens
Once the current economic storm is over than a return to the standard model would be expected
