Tax kerosene used by private jets

Open for signatures 35 signatures

What the petition asks

We believe kerosene should be taxed for private jets in the UK. Private jet usage contributes much higher carbon per passenger than conventional commercial air travel and therefore should be taxed accordingly. Private jet travel is a luxury that causes environmental damage.
