Inflation in Britain surged again last month.
Consumer prices were up by a stronger-than-expected 2.3 percent thanks to by more expensive fuel and food.
That was up from the previous month's 1.8 percent and above the 2.0 percent target of the UK's central bank. It was the biggest annual increase in nearly three-and-a-half years.
Oil was pricier and the fall in the value of the pound linked to the Brexit vote has pushed up the cost of imported raw materials.
