Perhaps now time to move it from a duty to a (climate change) supplementary rate to VAT?
Yet again petrol duty not rising with inflation. 7th year in a row at a cost now over £6bn a year. Big problem for the Treasury as this big tax looks like it is gradually on the way out.

petrol tax is an unfair tax as it hurts the poorer in our society disproportionately.

I know what you're saying, but the poorest people don't drive. Fewer than half of the households in Glasgow have a car. If the aim is to reduce the tax burden on poorer people, fuel duty is a bad way to go about it.

It is pathetic how politicians struggle to do the right thing, yet will do the popular thing.
