Show Notes
Northern Ireland experiences the most significant fuel price surge in the UK due to the Iran conflict, with petrol jumping 19% and diesel soaring 35%. Despite still having the UKs cheapest fuel, the advantage is rapidly diminishing. Across the UK, averages are up 16% for petrol and 30% for diesel, with Englands north seeing petrol climb to 154 pence per litre. The governments new Fuel Finder scheme has led to fines for late price reporting, with major chains hiking prices by 15-16% since late February. As Middle East tensions persist, drivers face record highs, impacting their wallets, particularly during Easter weekends and rural drives.
