BBC World Service - BBC OS, Cost of living crisis: The UK

We hear about the impact of rising prices around the world

We explain factors behind the global cost of living crisis, and hear from two people in the United Kingdom about the impact of rising prices of food, fuel and energy on their lives.

We get details of an explosion in the northern city of Kano in Nigeria. 

President Biden will be visiting the scene of mass shooting in the US city of Buffalo today. We talk to local people there about the life in one of the country’s most segregated cities.

We speak to our reporter who has been at the mining site in Burkina Faso where eight workers have been trapped underground for a month following a flood.
