Show Notes

Rachel Reeves faces pressure to ease fuel costs as Middle East tensions drive up prices, with diesel at £1.80 and petrol at £1.52. The government gains £8 billion from soaring energy revenues, while drivers feel the pinch amid warnings of a crisis worse than the 1970s. Keir Starmer calls for energy firms to team up, while Tories demand quick action. Treasury downplays the windfall, and analysts suggest fuel-saving measures, but ministers say supplies hold steady. Tough calls loom if the situation persists, balancing calm with preparation.
