Temporary reduce fuel duty whilst fuel costs are at an all time high

What the petition asks
Help the uk public with the increasing and unaffordable fuel costs by temporarily reducing fuel duty until such times as fuel prices stabilise.
There is currently a fuel crisis that is crippling low income families, businesses, the transport industry and professional drivers. With the looming increase in utility prices many people and families will be plunged into poverty. A cut in fuel duty would help alleviate this.
