UK diesel hits record high as global fuel costs climb

His threats are about making money for the wealthy. Every single fucking time. And people still don’t see it. It blows my mind that people look at this man and thinks he’s for the “people.” www.cityam.com/diesel-ban-u...

Good morning with good news: EVs are up to nine times cheaper to drive than gasoline or diesel autos in the UK. UK petrol cars cost 20.1 pence/mile (~27 cents) to drive. An EV costs 2.3-7 pence/mile. Plug-in autos were ~44% of UK sales in August! www.carbonbrief.org/analysis-evs... #energysky

U.S. President Donald Trump has suggested the White House is still considering a diesel export ban as he faces mounting political pressure to tackle soaring fuel prices ahead of the midterm elections in November. Read more: cnb.cx/4rwD7FG

(2/2) If refineries aren't producing diesel they're also not producing gasoline and jet fuel which will skyrocket in prices. When fuel prices rise, everything fuel is used for also increases including groceries and just about everything we buy

"The cost of diesel has risen by 59p a litre, just under 40%, since the conflict between the USA and Iran erupted at the end of February." Just in case you thought Trump's dumbfuckery didn't have an impact on the UK - even if you don't use diesel, your groceries don't magic themselves onto shelves.

UK RAC data indicate that the average cost of a litre of diesel in the UK has reached a record 199.18p, exceeding the previous peak from 2022. This is equivalent to $9.99 per US gallon. Filling an average family car now costs nearly £110,… https://x.com/FaytuksNetwork/status/2104514769466085735

As of 4pm today, more than one in four UK petrol stations charge £2+ for a litre of diesel, according to the government's latest fuel price data (via my colleague Michael Simmons)

As filling your car with diesel hits an all time high remember that besides Trump causing it, Farage and Badenoch were furiously trying to get the UK involved in his War until they realised the UK public were vehemently anti the illegal War They always put their own interests ahead of the UK’s❗️

The US will be left in the wilderness. Here in the UK, EV take up is accelerating rapidly due to furl costs caused by Trump. I wouldn't drive a gas or diesel car ever again.

Diesel prices are at an all-time high, and there are still almost 10m diesel cars on our roads. The government needs to do more to accelerate the switch to cleaner transport - both to support the cost of living and to reduce #AirPollution. #ZEVMandate

If course MAGATs will see this as tRump lowering prices on fuel hero worship. It's not. He's not a hero. It's not lower fuel prices. Hope your community has winter fuel relief benefits. apnews.com/article/trum...

In the UK on Saturday I was shocked to see 171.9p per litre for regular. Here's how that converts. We're all affected, it's going to be an expensive winter I fear.

Rising oil prices have increased costs for many industries, including aviation. Data from the International Air Transport Association show jet fuel costs have more than doubled in the last year.

Fuck me, how are people getting places, just clocked the fuel prices at our local garage, £2.01.9?? I dont know how marv is going to afford to see MM

New record price of diesel at now at 199.4p per litre Also exceeded £2 a litre at 100s of Scottish forecourts, acc BB Scotland News "Government could be about to pile more pressure on families’ cost of living by watering down EV sales targets" @jessralston.bsky.social eciu.net/media/press...
