These prices are worked out on the £ versus € , at exchange rate of €1.06 to the £.
I am paying £1.257 at Asda by me, so quite a hike in price when travelling to Europe. Diesel has been as much as 17 cents per litre cheaper in Europe a few years back compared to GB. Not any more. I can understand why the yellow jackets got their nickers in a twist in France the way prices have gone up over there..

If you need fuel you will need fuel so will pay the appropriate rate wherever you are in Europe, it's a weekend away with your mates so probably we shouldn't be worrying about saving a few pence here and there on fuel
I'll will fill at Folkstone, simply because it's one less thing to worry about over the weekend.. probably here
