Price rises hit highest level in nearly a decade

In this speed read we look at the recent rise in inflation

Inflation, the rate at which prices are rising, recorded a record jump in August rising to 3.2% up from 2.0% in July.

The rise is expected to be temporary, latest government forecasts predicting inflation will be 2.4% a year from now, before falling back below the government's 2.0% target in 2023.
