Anyone know the reason for the fall though? New supppliers, calmer market?
Would have been nice for the BBC to include that.
£1.407 beside me, been sub-£1.50 for a while now.
Meanwhile, Diesel used to only be a few pence more. Yet still sits at at least 1.75 (near me anyway) how come diesel hasn’t fallen in line with petrol?
Can anyone explain why there is such massive variance where I live in Cambridgeshire.
Tesco has been £1.45 or so for weeks now, but up the road a few miles it can be £1.55+
As someone who does delivery work part time the petrol price falling has almost been like a mini tax cut. All of my petrol allowance used to actually be spent on petrol but I’m managing to keep around 1/3 as profit.
Where are all the window-lickers that always say “And they’ll never bring it back down” when the price goes up?
Remember during the last fuel crisis there were protests and blockades when fuel approached 1.50/l. Fair play on fuel!
Petrol price has been dropping for months now, and so has the price of wholesale gas.
I realise the complexities of why, but it’s funny that petrol manufacturers and suppliers can react to price drops and also drop prices for customers, but energy companies can’t.
gas and leccy price will go down soon right? right?
At 1.6p/litre it was literally cheaper to run things off a petrol generator than it was to buy electricity from the grid at price cap rates. Now it must be getting into territory where the ROI on the generator is a reasonable enough timeframe to make it worthwhile.
I hope they’ll be putting the duty back on now it’s cheap again.
137.9 when I filled up last night, when it was less than 60 quid total I was almost giddy.
Still over 1.50 here. We haven’t seen sub 1.50 at all
