Decrease tax on fuel.

What the petition asks
The cost of fuel is madness at the moment therefore we should cut the tax on fuel to help households.
The cost of living is going up exponentially. This needs to stop. The current job market and wages cannot support these raises in costs and therefore action needs to be taken. Current inflation makes it already hard enough to keep up with general price increases and then the astronomical increase in price of fuel is not helping
