VAT on FUEL
This should be passed to as many people as possible! ...
When VAT was temporarily reduced to 15%, the Chancellor added 2% duty to fuel to offset the reduction in tax collected from motorists. Now that VAT
has been increased to 17.5% again this hidden tax has not been removed - hence recent rises in your fuel costs. Sign the petition at the link below
to have this stealth tax removed!

Please pass this on to your friends - the more the merrier. Happy motoring!

Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in
sideways, thoroughly used, totally worn out and loudly proclaiming... "f*ck, what a trip!"

Hey- someone's got to pay for these MPs second homes. Stop complaining about paying tax on fuel.
Bet the MPs claim it back on expenses anyway....

The 2p duty wasn't to offset the reduction in VAT I don't think - it was planned, put off during the worst part of the recession and then
reinstated. Once it's on there, it's never coming off, petition or no.....

Tenencia.
STOP WHINING!
Here in Mexico we had a Tax Called Tenencia which was supposedly to cover for the 1970 Olympics.
It is Somewhere between 3 to 5 % of the invoice value of the car and you have to pay for every vehicle under 10 years old.
And thats on top of IVA (VAT) and ISAN (New Vehicle Acquisition Tax)
Every single Presidential candidate for the last 18 years has promised to remove, but when they do the maths, I think they suddenly get Alzheimers or
some other form of memory loss.
Beware of what you wish.. for it may come true....

The Real Crime is the VAT on the Duty, they should both be worked out on the cost of the fuel alone.
Noones going to fix it. Labour and conservative are offering the same things and the LibDems won't win.

I've not heard of one of these petitions ever changing the way they do things. But I've still signed it in hope.

I've not heard of one of these petitions answered in a way which looks like they've read it!
Signed anyway, and I'm voting for the first people who ACTUALLY reduce fuel costs, I don't care if it's the "breaking windows
with bricks" party

I recon the Gov't just use that site to gauge issues. They dont actually do anything that is asked for. Whihc is par for the course for ANY
party that gets into Gov't.
1. The point of a journey is not to arrive.
2. Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway.

I get the impression that any party who made a believable promiss to lower things like fuel duty and taxes in general would do well come election day.
