Rejected petition stop petrol stations charging extortionate prices at motorway services
Rejected on
i find it absolutely disgraceful that oil companies can charge up to 20 pence a litre more on a motorway then in towns or cities,just because they know you may have to stop there to fill up.its about time this behaviour was stopped
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
The Government and Parliament aren't responsible for the prices that companies chose to charge for petrol. Parliament sets the tax on petrol, but doesn't control the prices charged at different locations.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
