What happened, for context

UK consumer price inflation rose to 3.1% in August 2026 from 2.9% in July, a five-month high driven primarily by rising fuel prices linked to Middle East geopolitical tensions and increased airfares. The Bank of England is expected to hold interest rates at 3.75% at its September 17 meeting, but economists signal rate hikes remain likely later in the year despite a softening labour market.
