Petrol prices have risen to a record high, triggering fresh demands for the introduction of a fuel price stabiliser.

Motorists are now paying 122.14 a litre for petrol, 3.06 pence more than a month ago, while diesel has hit 126.19 pence – a rise of 3.12 pence.
It means that drivers have to find nearly £7 more than they did last December to fill up an average car.
Britain's 31 million motorists are facing an even worse New Year, with two separate tax rises due to come into force in the first week of January.

The Prime Minister has played down the chances of the introduction of a "fuel stabiliser", causing anger amongst business groups and campaigners.

Petrol prices are at a record high, and there are calls for David Cameron to look into the idea he championed during his election campaign.

The concept is to peg fuel duty to the price of oil so that when the price of oil goes up the proportion of tax goes down, and vice versa, maintaining a steady price for consumers.
