Rejected petition Reduce fuel costs.

Reduce fuel costs across the U.K.
Petrol and diesel have increased by marginal amounts to the point where people can’t afford.
We are one of the most extensive in the world - 150/170 and with the cost of living increasing daily something needs to be done as the majority can’t afford the increase.

More details

If other countries can have £1 p/L cheaper fuel then why can’t we?
Decrease tax and VAT on fuel.
Negotiate cheaper fuel prices with companies that make billions in profits.
Regulators to step in and ensure forecourts aren’t charging over the odds (which we have all seen them do!!).
