Restore Britain leader Rupert Lowe MP has demanded immediate action on soaring inflation caused by the Iran war, calling on Rachel Reeves to cut fuel duty now and warning that only a “chainsaw” to the bloated British state, deep tax cuts and ending money printing will make life affordable again for British families.

Lowe: Inflation Spike From Iran War

Rupert Lowe said inflation is jumping because of the Iran conflict and fuel costs are soaring. He made his view clear from day one: “British families should not be suffering because of the bombing – Reeves must radically and urgently cut fuel duty.”

“Take a Chainsaw to the British State”

Lowe warned that cutting fuel duty is only a “sticking plaster”. The brutal truth, he said, is that the country must live within its means. He called for a chainsaw to the British state, vast cuts to tax and finally controlling the state’s “insane money printing addiction”.

  • Inflation rising due to Iran war and fuel costs
  • Immediate fuel duty cut demanded
  • Chainsaw to bloated British state needed
  • Vast tax cuts and end to money printing
  • “Painful process” but only way to make life affordable

What This Means for Britain

British families are paying the price for global events and years of economic mismanagement. Fuel costs are soaring, inflation is rising and the cost-of-living crisis is getting worse. Rupert Lowe is right – a fuel duty cut is the bare minimum, but real relief requires deep spending cuts, lower taxes and an end to money printing.
