UK Diesel Record High Squeezes Motorists: Average UK diesel price

🐿️ The Squirrel's Take
The war premium on crude now directly punishes small businesses and delivery drivers at the pump.
💡 Why it matters
Higher diesel costs ripple through supply chains, pushing up prices for goods and services across the UK economy.

Average UK diesel price reached record £2 per litre, up 40.5% since late February when the US-Israel war on Iran disrupted Gulf oil supplies. The RAC motoring group confirmed the all-time high, with petrol prices also rising.
