But critics have questioned the choice to particularly strengthen ties with Mohammed bin Salman, with the Saudi leader having been implicated in the assassination of US-based journalist Jamal Khashoggi.

Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer has said that "going cap in hand from dictator to dictator is not an energy strategy".

In a statement ahead of setting off on Tuesday evening, Mr Johnson said: "The UK is building an international coalition to deal with the new reality we face. The world must wean itself off Russian hydrocarbons and starve Putin's addiction to oil and gas.

"Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates are key international partners in that effort. We will work with them to ensure regional security, support the humanitarian relief effort and stabilise global energy markets for the longer term."

It comes as families saw the average price of petrol at forecourts hit a record 163.5p per litre this week, up from 148.0p just a month ago - while diesel was at 173.4p, up from 151.6p a month ago.

The high costs mean it's worth looking around for the best prices when looking to fill up your car – supermarket forecourts usually offer the cheapest fuel prices. This is because of the market power supermarkets hold – the big names like Asda, Tesco, Sainsbury’s and Morrisons are all in competition with one another so they keep fuel prices as low as possible hoping that when motorists come to fill their tank they might do their weekly grocery shopping too.
