Delay the April NI increase given the impact of the fuel crisis on UK households

What the petition asks
The Government should delay the planned NI increase in April indefinitely until household fuel bills return to levels below the October 21 - March 2022 price cap, and average petrol costs fall back to under 150p per litre.
The impact of higher NI, rising gas prices and petrol pump charges is crippling many UK households and businesses. While the gas and petrol prices are outside the Government’s control, the planned NI increase is very much in their control and can be delayed to help offset the significant increase in household bills
