More than 30,000 motorists, families, small business owners, tradespeople, farmers and hauliers have emailed the Prime Minister and Chancellor in just 24 hours, demanding urgent action on fuel costs ahead of the Budget on 28 October.

The unprecedented response follows a FairFuelUK campaign urging supporters to contact the Government directly and demand policies that support drivers, reduce business costs and boost economic growth.

The flood of emails sends a clear message to Downing Street and the Treasury: Britain’s drivers believe they are being unfairly targeted, overtaxed and ignored.

At the centre of the campaign is a letter calling on Ministers to recognise that road transport is not a luxury, but the economic backbone of the nation.

Supporters warn that excessive fuel taxation keeps driving up household costs, damaging small businesses, and raising prices for goods and services across the economy.

Commenting on the overwhelming response, Howard Cox, Founder of FairFuelUK, said:

“More than 30,000 people have emailed the Prime Minister and Chancellor within just 24 hours because drivers have had enough. They are tired of being treated as cash cows while politicians ignore the reality that affordable road transport is essential to every family, every business and every community in Britain. This isn’t just about motorists. Every product on every supermarket shelf, every tradesperson, every delivery, every small business and every worker depends on affordable transport.

“Ministers constantly talk about growth. Cheaper fuel is one of the fastest and most effective ways to lower costs, tackle inflation, and stimulate economic activity. Drivers’ message couldn’t be clearer. Cut Fuel Duty, introduce real fuel market transparency, and start treating Britain’s motorists as part of the solution, not the problem.”
