UK Inflation Hits 40yr High at 9.1% in May

The soaring energy crisis, rocketing food and fuel prices and housing costs have been blamed for the UK’s fastest inflation rise in 40 years in May that hit 9.1% according to official Office of National Statistics data.

The Consumer Prices Index broke the previous all-time record high of 9% set in April this year, while the rate including housing costs rose by 7.9% - the most in over 30 years, when Britain was in a recession.

Bank of England estimates suggest inflation will keep pushing up to around 11% this year.
