Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

Petitions must call for a specific action that the UK Government or Parliament is responsible for.

Decisions about fuel prices are a matter for individual fuel companies, not the Government or Parliament. As a result it is not possible for the Government or Parliament to take the action you have requested.

We have published the following petition, which you might like to sign:
