Pressure on the Government to take action on fuel prices has intensified as the new working week gets under way after the average cost of petrol reached a yet another new high. The RAC said a further cut in duty this week would be "very welcome, albeit overdue".
Figures from data firm Experian show the average price of a litre of petrol at UK forecourts reached a new high of 185.0p on Sunday. That is up by 7.1p in just a week.
The average price of diesel was 190.9p per litre on Sunday.
