Either axe or withdraw the last government's Fuel DUTY for 24 months

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

If the current government axed the fuel duty which the last government brought in & has slowly been choking our economy & lives.
The cost of manufacturing & transportation of goods to local shop's & businesses would almost halve in a single day. We COULD have more money in our pockets to buy more from local shop's & businesses, more money to spend a day out at. be it at the seaside or a theme park, more money to visit relatives the other side of the country. And all that money we spend would more then cover the cancellation of a tax designed to Rob us of our happiness.
