This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:


We can't accept your petition because the UK Government and Parliament aren't responsible for the issue you raise. The cost of fuel is the responsibility of individual petrol companies.

In relation to the price of petrol, the Government does have the power to raise and lower fuel duty. You could sign the following petition in relation to lowering fuel duty to European levels or lower petition.parliament.uk/petitions/104695.
