Rejected petition Reduce Fuel Duties to get the Economy Going

It’s time to make the one cut needed to kick start the economy.
It’s time to take 50p off the price of fuel.
Lower fuel prices will help everyone: the worker paying a lower bus fare, the business on the edge of bankruptcy facing lower costs, the price of practically anything bought on the high street.
By helping the economy, it will lower government payments to the unemployed; it will increase profitability and tax revenues; it will create employment and consequently generate income tax and NI payments; it will help squeezed councils cover the costs of bin collections; it will help rural workers afford travel to their jobs.
It will drive down inflation so that those in poverty are less hard-pressed; those in the middle class will be able to spend more (or pay off debts faster); those looking for bank loans will be better able to justify them.
It will make the UK a better place to do business and make existing UK businesses more competitive overseas.
It’s win-win-win-win-win.
