Fuel Prices
Posted: Sat Jun 25, 11 7:02 pm
Dear FairFuelUK Supporter,
Oil prices have fallen, but what we pay at the pump for petrol and diesel remains far too high! FairFuelUK is pushing harder than ever to tackle this. Earlier this week, we were in Parliament forcing the petrol and diesel price issue back on the agenda. The Oil companies need to pass on reductions in the cost of Oil. If they don’t, the Government needs to take action. That said, the Government needs to do much more about fuel tax. It needs to abandon its current plan to increase fuel tax in January 2012. It needs to understand that the current high level of fuel tax is hurting motorists, businesses and the road hauliers. High fuel taxes are strangling the economic recovery.
The Government needs a plan to REDUCE, not increase, fuel tax.
We can't fight this campaign with just 160,000 people behind us .... We need hundreds of thousands more from every corner of Britain.
We've changed the way that our web site works to make it easier for you to help us achieve this increase in support. Please go to the site at www.fairfueluk.com and select 'tell a friend' or click directly to this link http://bit.ly/FFUK-tell_a_friend .
The "tell a friend" page will give you some options. You can type in up to 10 separate email addresses. Better still, if you are on AOL, Yahoo, MSN, Gmail etc, you can select "Load Contacts From Your Email Account" and the site will send out an invitation to all your contacts at the click of a button.
With your help in the run up to this years Budget we forced the Government to abandon its planned massive hike in fuel taxes planned for April of 5p per litre. We couldn’t have done that without you. We now need to keep the pressure on. Please, even if you never normally foward on messages, do go to ‘tell a friend’ and help us spread the word.
