Inflation dips slightly but food and energy bills keep up pressure on households

UK inflation dipped by more than expected last month following October’s 41-year high, but sky-high food and energy costs have kept up the pressure on households.

The Office for National Statistics (ONS) said the rate of Consumer Prices Index (CPI) inflation fell to 10.7% in November, from 11.1% in October.

This marks a decline from the 11.1% seen in October, when soaring bills sent inflation to its highest level since October 1981.
