The analysis took place between April 1, 2015 and May 4, 2015 and the parties studied included the Conservatives, Labour, Liberal Democrats, Scottish National Party, UK Independence Party and the Green Party.

Fuel Card Services has advised fleet managers not to expect too much from the newly elected Conservative government. They should not anticipate any reduction in either fuel duty or road tax.

Group marketing manager, Steve Clarke, said: “David Cameron’s outright majority in the Commons means relatively stable government for at least the first couple of years, but the EU referendum is going to be a major distraction from everyday business. Meanwhile, the deficit still has to be tackled and George Osborne will have little room for manoeuvre, especially given all the pre-poll tax and spending commitments. Much as the economy would certainly benefit from financial help for commercial road users, expecting anything significant would represent unrealistic optimism.”
