Rising Energy Costs, Expected to Drive Inflation , to an All-Time High in the UK.
'The Independent' reports that new data from the Office
for National Statistics will paint a clear picture of the , cost of living crisis , experienced by households across the UK.
Officials at the Bank of England
expect inflation to rise
over 10% in 2022.
According to 'The Independent,' forecasts predict 2022
will see the highest one-year increase since the
Consumer Price Index began keeping records in 1998.
April's rise in prices was reportedly

'The Independent' reports that inflation figures
could affect interest rates set by the Bank of England's, Monetary Policy Committee.
If confirmed, this would place huge pressure
on the Bank of England to continue raising
interest rates at upcoming meetings, Matthew Ryan, Analyst at financial services firm Ebury, via 'The Independent'.
Communications from the MPC have
turned increasingly dovish and largely
muddled in recent weeks, although
we think that upcoming inflation prints
will likely force the bank’s hand, Matthew Ryan, Analyst at financial services firm Ebury, via 'The Independent'.
On May 16, the Bank's governor, Andrew Bailey, said that
the high price of global energy and goods will impact
consumer demand and potentially increase unemployment.

The main driver of inflation and
what brings it down is the very big,
real income shock which is coming
from outside forces and, particularly,
energy prices and global goods prices, Andrew Bailey, Bank of England Governor,
