[The cost of living has surged at its
fastest pace in almost 10 years,
hitting 4.2% in the year to October.
It is mainly due to higher fuel and
energy prices but the cost of second-hand
cars and eating out also rose,
the Office for National Statistics said.
Inflation is up sharply since
Covid restrictions ended this year
and the economy reopened.

The Bank of England says it may have
to raise interest rates in the "coming months"
to tackle rising prices.

October's reading is far higher
than the 3.1% rise recorded
in the year to September and more
than double the Bank's target of 2%.]
