Rejected petition Reduce rate of Fuel Duty to Stimulate UK Economic Growth Post Brexit

The UK fuel duty rate on petrol and diesel of 57.95 pence per litre is an unfair percentage (over 50%) of the total cost of fuel .
Given that lower fuel costs will stimulate the UK economy the government should make consideration to lowering the rate of duty to ensure the UK is secure post brexit.
