Rejected petition Reduce Vehicle Fuel Duty in the UK

More details

Fuel Prices have risen over the last few years and months to high levels. However whilst wholesale prices have increased, fuel duties payable to the government represent nearly 60% of the price paid at the pumps.

Therefore we would like the government to take action and reduce the price at the pump, though reduced duties to help businesses and families across the country.
