Abstract

UK consumer prices have decreased to 3.4% in February from 4% in January, reaching the lowest level in over two years. The decrease in inflation was driven by falls in food and clothing and footwear prices, as well as cheaper energy prices. However, experts caution that prices are still rising, albeit at a slower pace, and that there are still significant challenges for families facing higher costs of living. The British Retail Consortium has called on the government to stimulate the economy and boost consumer confidence. [Extracted from the article]
