More details

The people of UK strongly object to road privatisation. As per previous government’s privatisation, utility costs have increased substantially, with the knock on effect being ordinary citizens ending up in fuel "Poverty", defined as spending more than 10% of their income on Energy. The plans to privatise roads will result in transport poverty. The people of the UK hereby petition the government not to privatise the road network in any way at all.
