This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

While we can see that you'd like the Government to take action on the rising cost of living, it's not clear exactly what you'd like the Government to do. A petition has to ask for a specific action from the Government.

You could start a petition asking for the Government to take more focused action to tackle the rising cost of living, for example to subsidise food prices.

There are other petitions that are already open which are asking for similar changes which you might like to sign:

Hold an urgent inquiry into the energy crisis, and remove VAT on fuel
