I'm not saying cancel duty on fuel but they should off set some of it to reduce the burden.

Unfortunately the tax percentage is so high to offset it means other taxes would go through the roof, it wants the very over inflated wages that MP's and the top brass earn cutting then the government spending would drop dramatically.

You also need to remeber that in typical labour party fasion this Gov't has got the country serioulsy into debt, again.
Even though thay have pretty much sold the shop whilst they have been in power and we no longer owe the Yanks for WWII, gov't borrowing exceeded the forecast by a massive margin last year.
They've got 2 wars to pay for and someone has to foot the bill.

Add to that military covering fuel blockade, threatened Police strikes and another potential war in Kosovo!
Doubt your going to get any savings on tax for fuel.
There is more to look at than just the cost of fuel. Look at the prices charged during the last fuel strike and the effect it had there after.

Police Strikes? :? The police cannot legally (or illegally) go on strike.
