UK Petrol Prices Rise Above 150p A Litre for First Time Since January

The latest increase in pump prices means petrol is now 150.51p a litre, [penny: a British bronze coin and monetary unit equal to one hundredth of a pound] the highest level since early January, and diesel has risen to 152.41p a litre, the AA said. The motoring group last week accused supermarkets of overcharging customers in rural areas for fuel.
