Rising gas bills send inflation to 16-year high.


Inflation or recession what's the biggest worry?

In September inflation soared to 5.2 per cent,

the Consumer Price Index increased by 4.7 per cent

and the gas bills shot up with 49.9 per cent.

All this leads to a conclusion of inflation.

However, policy Makers don't seem to agree on this matter.

Last month, several Banks took measures to decrease

the risk of an economic downturn.

Five sentences, not four. Good start, using a question. The final sentence is a bit vague, though. Try to end on a clear note, preferably one that answers more clearly the question you started out with.
