UK inflation climbed to 3.5% in September, driven largely by rising motor fuel prices, according to latest figures reported by The Guardian. The data came alongside the government's approval of the Jackdaw gasfield in the North Sea, prompting debate about energy policy and the cost of living as households face renewed pressure on prices.
