Rejected petition Get the government to place a cap on petrol and diesel prices

A price cap on the rising petrol and diesel prices.
There should be a cap on what they can charge.
A lot of garages put the prices up before the 5p fuel duty was taken off thus not passing on the savings to the customer.
