Jeremy Clarkson has warned that a new £175 charge for drivers will be a 'disaster' as fuel duty is set to be unfrozen today, in the Autumn budget, by Labour Party Chancellor Rachel Reeves.

Jeremy Clarkson has issued a stark warning that the new £175 charge for drivers under Labour, which comes into effect today, will be a "disaster".

This plea was made amidst growing apprehension about a potential 7p per litre rise in fuel duty, which could add an extra £175 annually to an average family's fuel costs . Tory leadership contender Kemi Badenoch added that Labour wouldn't stimulate economic growth by "making it more expensive to fill up".
