Cut fuel taxes

Rejected 10 signatures

What the petition asks

I want the government to reduce some of the taxation on fuel. We are paying around 57% tax on a litre of fuel. This is not right at the price just now
The normal person who has to drive to work is being crippled with rising fuel prices as well as increased national insurance and massive jump in inflation
