Inside the Asda Scoop
Allan Leighton, the executive chairman, put it plain: “It’s in our DNA to give hard‑working customers and their families the best value we can, no matter how they shop with us.” He added a touch of optimism, “This cut in our prices gives real savings at the pump – and you can also snag more deals in‑store.”
RAC Cheers the Cut
Simon Williams, head of policy at RAC, praised Asda: “Great to see Asda leading the way again with a serious price cut on its forecourts. Following our push for retailers to pass on savings from lower wholesale costs, this will spark others into action and cut costs for drivers nationwide.” He even hinted that if oil stays around the $70 mark, we could finally see petrol hit its lowest price in four years.
A Small Conspiracy?
Luke Bosdet, spokesman for AA fuel, offered a tongue‑in‑cheek take: “Pump prices should have started dropping ages ago. We suspect the retailers, seeing room to lower costs, were watching each other locally to see who would budge first. That cosy relationship has long kept drivers on edge.”
