Not really, every time the government proposes a rise in fuel duty one of these petitions pops up and it never works.
Fact of the matter is motorists are an easy target for the government to make money off of and thats not gonna change any time soon.

load of crap again. just a waste of time.
to be effective, someone needs to kidnap the prime minister and hold him hostage and make him sign the petition too.

What they really need to do is stop paying MPs travel expenses, then maybe they'd realise just how much there increases in fuel duty affect people in the real world.

Yeah but by stating his oppinion in this thread it'll get read by the people that it was aimed at.
Odds are unless that petition reaches an epic number of people no MP will ever actually bother to look at it.

There's not even potential gain in that though.

No chance the government will cut fuel duty there needing to generate more income after bailing out the banks!!
