Reduce Fuel Duty to Offset Iran War Price Increases

Rejected 9 signatures

What the petition asks

I want the Government to temporarily reduce fuel duty to help offset rising petrol and diesel prices linked to global instability.

Fuel prices have risen sharply due to global instability, which directly impacts the cost of living across the UK. When fuel costs increase, it affects not only drivers but also the price of goods- that the general public have to face. It is unfair and is caused by an illegal war. By decreasing fuel duty it eases the financial burden for all consumers.
