Would be great if they would listen! I see that they're not increasing fuel until October, so it's a bit of a breather I guess.

Why say.... " I can't be bothered, whats the point, they don't read the petitons, etc etc..blah, blah"

Just take a look at the amount of people that have voted and then spread the word around the web sites... we all moan about Fuel Duty, why not try and do something about it?!.

Over 15,600 so far. Let's hope they don't all live in marginal Labour constituencies or the Government could be in big trouble over this one.
