| Petrol to hit £1 a litre within weeks as oil supply strains show |
|
 Petrol prices were on course last night to break the pound-a-litre barrier after the cost of crude oil on global markets rose to its highest level this year.
With the US navy putting on a show of strength off the Iranian coast and oil workers in Nigeria launching an indefinite strike, a barrel of Brent crude was trading for almost $72 last night - up more than a dollar on the day and within six dollars of last summer's record $78.40.
