This Was followed by another rise of 4. 5% in March, 8% in April and a further 7% in May.
The soaring price of fuel is down to supply issues caused by The Russian invasion of Ukraine, and a weak exchange rate between the US dollar and the UK's sterling.

He explained: " The Thief is someone who relies on their car, motorbike or scooter to get to or go about their work but their finances have been broken by the cost of living crisis. Stealing fuel then becomes an act of desperation.
" And Then you have the organised thieves Who See The High price of an essential item as highly lucrative and easily sold on.
" They will have their preferred method of stealing the fuel, whether that's putting an extra tank on the back seat And Then taking the fuel from forecourts, or taking jerry cans and cutting fuel lines on cars to drain tanks in The Street .
The latter will know which cars are easiest to steal from and target those. "
