UK inflation spikes to hit a 30 year high
Annual inflation was up at 5.4% in December, the highest value for almost 30 years.

While figures from the Office for National Statistics (ONS) reveal the rise is mainly down to energy prices, last month food and non-alcoholic beverages were most to blame.
