It says it has cut fuel prices by 14p a litre since April.

According to the AA, the average price of a litre of unleaded across the country is 133.8p, while a litre of diesel costs 139.3p on average.
However, fuel prices are soon set to rise, with a planned 3p per litre increase in fuel duty expected on August 1.
