The supermarket fuel price war is still very much on, with diesel prices cut for the second time in a week.

Diesel is now cheaper than petrol for the first time in 14 years.

Morrisons, Sainsbury's and Tesco have all said that that they will be dropping prices by 2p per litre. This follows a 2p cut announced by the main supermarkets last week.

[SPOTLIGHT]Diesel prices are now 21p cheaper per litre than they were 12 months ago, according to Morrisons.

Steve Gooding, Director of the RAC Foundation said: “We hope this is not the end of the reductions as the price of diesel at the refinery gate is still 4p cheaper per litre cheaper than that of petrol.”
