Reduce fuel duty and VAT on petrol and diesel - currently 52.95p per litre

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

The government need to do something about the obscene price of fuel - either sanction the companies or reduce the duty and VAT percentage.

The cost of living is becoming obscene and people who primarily use their cars for work are unable to fund the petrol in their vehicles. Fuel is upwards of 180p per litre at the moment and that is extortionate.

Why it was rejected

It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.

We understand you want fuel duty and VAT on fuel to be reduced, however it's not clear by how much you want these to be reduced, or to what amount.
