This is a huge overstatement. Fuel duty is frozen in nominal terms. In real terms, it’s being cut by just 1.5p a litre (2.3% inflation x 52.95p fuel duty rate + 20% VAT). The average UK car uses 746 litres a year, so would save £11 a year, not “hundreds of pounds”. https://www.nimblefins.co.uk/cheap-car-insurance/average-cost-petrol-car

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1868589445802508756
Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
