Families who are finding it hard to make ends meet during the cost-of-living crisis may now be struggling more than ever, as inflation has unexpectedly jumped again.
Inflation rose from 10.1% in January to 10.4% in February, according to the Office for National Statistics (ONS), with food prices at their highest rate in more than 45 years. Indeed, the consumer brand Which? has found the cost of some everyday groceries has more than doubled over the last year.
