## Resource

Retail inflation is creeping up, fueled by soaring prices in non-food items like furniture and beauty products—driven by global supply chain disruptions—while food prices dip. The British Retail Consortium warns that without government intervention to ease business costs, including energy levies and rising wages, prices could keep climbing. Retailers are already under pressure, and Labour’s price cap proposals drew backlash from industry leaders and the Bank of England.
