The average price of the full English breakfast is said to have risen 17 percent in the past year. The price of buying the ingredients rose by 1.8 percent in the past month alone, with milk up by more that 7 percent according to a report by Bloomberg this summer.

However falling petrol and diesel prices meant the overall inflation rate eased slightly, but it remains near a 40-year high, official figures show.
