Britain's inflation rate rose to a 41-year high in October, fueling demands for the government to do more to ease the nation's cost-of-living crisis when it releases new tax and spending plans on Thursday. The Office for National Statistics says consumer prices rose 11.1% in the 12 months through October, compared with 10.1% in September. The October figure exceeded economists expectations of 10.7%.
