Fuel costs.
I'm suffering a bit of a moral dilemma here as to whether the cost of fuel is high enough or not. I am, however, completely certain that I'm fed up of the massive tax burden placed on us in general and huge amout of duty taken from fuel costs so I did sign the petition.

Petition to: Reduce Fuel duty to bring fuel prices back to an acceptable level.

3 times, you've already paid income tax earning the money to buy the fuel.

It was high enough when it reached a pound a litre, I think it should have been capped at that with the government taking a tax cut. When I filled my tank yesterday petrol had gone up by 5p a litre since the last fill (9 days), by that reckoning thats a rise of around 200% a year!!!

This goverment have taken the piss for too long, it will be very satisfying when we get to vote them out of a job,

I've had my car for about 8 months, it's gone from £50 to £67 to fill it up.
