Reduce fuel tax to make transport more affordable

The issue

Let's stand together against the high fuel prices. It's ridiculous for us as motorists to pay this much for fuel. New Zealand's fuel price has surpassed the $3 per liter mark. So many of us are living on the edge financially. It becomes more and more expensive for us to live our normal daily lives.

Deputy Prime Minister Grant Robertson told First Up he did not see prices going to $4 per litre "but I don't think we've seen the end of petrol price rises"

Although all of the current tax collected is currently put back into the transport system this petition calls a reprieve in the current tax amount until the issues overseas are resolved

Sign this petition so that we call the government to review the fuel price structure and tax rates which implicate the current cost of fuel.
