Diesel prices hit a record high in the UK

The RAC says stations were charging 199.18p per litre for diesel, adding to cost pressures ahead of the UK’s next Budget.

UK diesel costs surged to a record high of 199.18p per litre, intensifying concerns about additional strain on the economy ahead of the next Budget, OilPrice reports. According to the RAC, stations were charging 199.18p per litre, a move the automotive group said reflects the scale of the latest energy shock. OilPrice frames the increase as part of a broader set of financial pressures facing the UK economy as it moves into what it describes as “uncharted territory” ahead of budget planning.
