Petrol
prices are likely to reach a record high level this year, according
to research by the AA, one of the UK’s leading UK motoring
organisations.
Already affected by a 17% rise in European wholesale petrol prices since January, prices may rise to £1.20 a litre in the next few weeks. This is because of a Government levy of 3p in fuel duty and VAT on petrol and diesel scheduled to take effect on 1 April.
The AA warns that people struggling on tight budgets, such as
families, drivers on fixed incomes and people on low pay, would be
hit hard by the rise. They are urging the chancellor, Alistair
Darling to postpone the introduction of the fuel levy – a call
echoed by the RAC, the UK’s other leading driving
organisation.
