Asley Myers, head of fuel at the supermarket giant, told Press Association: "This cut will help people who are travelling to work, those shopping for essentials, and those assisting the elderly and vulnerable.

Diesel has also been cut in price, and is now 104.7p per litre.
The fall in the price of fuel has been driven by a global collapse in oil prices. This has been caused by a reduction in demand brought about by the global shutdown of economies during the Covid-19 pandemic.
