Put a cap on fuel prices
The cost of living is soaring for ordinary people yet companies are still profiting from essentials e.g. fuel. The government should cap fuel prices at a reasonable price so people can afford to live.
The UK has the opportunity to set a precedent to other countries and prove that their people are worth more than lining big business' pockets. Government has more sway with companies than the general population. The country needs their government to help them.

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
We can only accept petitions about things the Government or Parliament are directly responsible for. The Government isn't responsible for setting the price of fuel and energy, which is a matter for suppliers.
We have published the following petitions calling for related actions, which you might like to sign:
Set up an independent regulator to monitor and regulate vehicle fuel pricing
