Raise fuel duty in line with inflation to raise income for critical services
In 2000 fuel duty on petrol was 49p/litre. Since then, it has not risen with inflation, and currently sits at 53p/litre. We believe raising the duty to 93p/litre would raise significant revenue for the Treasury.
Make petrol and diesel tax free

Extend the Fuel Duty Freeze for Motorists For At Least Two More Years
Extend the temporary cut on fuel duty for motorists, set to end in March 2026 for a minimum of 2 more years, ensure fuel duty rates for motorists continue to stay frozen at the current headline rate during this period and set clear targets for further freezes in the future.
