Anne Marie said:
“I am delighted the Chancellor has listened to those of us who have been calling for the cancellation of the 3p fuel duty rise that was planned for August. I have been asking for this for some time because I know how difficult it is to keep the car running – particularly in our rural areas where the car is a necessity and not a luxury.
“The decision taken by the Chancellor today is fantastic news for households and businesses across the country and I am pleased the government has listened to those of us who wanted this rise scrapped.”
