motorists will *never* notice cuts to fuel duty (which they permanently be convinced is too high, and in fact actually purposefully being set to victimise them), but the state will bleed itself dry for their discount that doesn't touch the sides, in a way they never would for public transport users
Fuel duty has effectively been cut by 40% in real terms since 2011
Yet some 46% of voters still say petrol is “unaffordable”, according to More In Common. When asked about Rachel Reeves’ recent cut to fuel duty, less than half of voters were even aware it had happened!

Your regular reminder that this is still true. It’s changing, but not far enough/fast enough. Keep fighting to change it. #FewerCars #EVs
