The prime minister has told Good Morning Britain he cannot fix rising fuel costs "straight away" as he acknowledged people were struggling with rising living costs. The average price of a litre of diesel in the UK hit an all-time high of 199.18p this week, with unleaded petrol prices also on the rise, RAC figures showed. Speaking to GMB the day after his conference speech, Andy Burnham said: "It's very hard, isn't it?
