Rejected petition Stop profiting from the high prices of fuel!
Reduce the tax and VAT on fuel as the government should not be profiting from peoples suffering!
More details
People are struggling to survive at present due to high living costs and low wages. A major contributor to this is the tax and VAT on fuel that we all need. As fuel prices rise the government coffers increase due to the unfair tax system. The government should be helping people by reducing taxes on fuel as the price rises and NOT profiting from it!
