they have to hike the tax on fuel now because once we get to net zero there will be no gas tax, it wont exist.
Wonder where they are going to make up the shortfall
Half the cost of fuel in the UK is tax
If they cut the tax now it would encourage people to travel and spend money and as such raise money through VAT on goods
They may as well get used to not having the tax from fuel sooner rather than later
But that wont happen because we know there will be no net zero, it wont happen, they will abandon it in 10 years and we will have all been taxed to death anyway
