What the petition asks
We would like the government to hold emergency meeting to introducing emergency measures to address the fuel cost crisis and bring in fuel duty reduction, there is also so many variation in pump prices possibly some cashing in on the crisis
Introduce emergency legislation and packages to reduce fuel duty and other measures so bring fuel price to affordable levels similar to what other nations have done like Ireland and Germany, failing this could lead to massive protests and civil disorder like previously and with no end in sight for the current man made crisis, British tax payers must get the support they are entitled to
