Proceeding contribution from Richard Holden (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 18 March 2026. It occurred during Opposition day on Fuel Duty.


Fuel Duty

My hon. Friend is right, and some of those tax rises are hitting many of the companies that will also be hit by these fuel duty rises. I have spoken to hauliers, in my constituency and across the country, who already face increasing business rates and increasing national insurance costs and are now being hit with a fuel duty rise as well.
