Jeremy Hunt: make oil and gas giants pay for soaring energy prices, not ordinary people

Energy prices are hitting record levels and Jeremy Hunt is making us, the taxpayer, foot the bill.

Fossil fuel giant Shell has announced sky rocketing annual profits and BP CEO described the company as a “cash machine”.

Meanwhile millions of people across the country are being forced into fuel poverty. This isn’t right.

Instead of propping up the oil and gas industry, the government should support ordinary people and tax the mega profits being made by fossil fuel companies from this crisis. Tell them.

SIGN THE PETITION

To: Jeremy Hunt, Chancellor of the Exchequer

“Commit to a windfall tax on the mega profits of fossil fuel giants Shell and BP and ensure ordinary people don’t pay for the energy crisis.”
