UK inflation expected to hold at 3.4% as June rate to be released
Update: Date: 06:36 BST Title: 'Higher prices mean people don't go out like they used to' Content: Connie BowkerBusiness reporter I have spoken to Saul, a tutor who says he has noticed that prices in supermarkets have risen significantly. He says olive oil is among the items he's noticed that has become rapidly more expensive, and more items in the supermarket are behind the counter and have a security tag to prevent theft. "I feel like people talk more and more about basic amenities suddenly being extortionate and olive oil being fancy," he says. Saul also tells me he has cut back on "indulgence" purchases, such as coffee and alcohol, which he says is "a sign of where we are". "I feel like it creates a very different culture when it costs so much more to have one drink. "It means people don't go out the same way or socialise in the same way." Update: Date: 06:25 BST Title: What level has inflation been at in the past few months? Content: Last month, the Office for National Statistics (ONS) said inflation held at 3.4% in the year to May - the same figure released for April. The ONS said transport costs were the largest downward contribution to inflation in May, with that being offset by upward contributions coming from food, furniture and household goods - leaving us back at the 3.4% figure. April's inflation rate was initially published as 3.5%, but the Office for National Statistics later said an error in some tax data it received meant the rate should have been a touch lower at 3.4%. The ONS only revises its official rate in exceptional circumstances, so the figure for the year to April still appears as 3.5% on its website. Update: Date: 06:20 BST Title: What is inflation? Content: The Bank of England says high inflation has been caused by a series of shocks to the economy Each month we report on the inflation rate because it is one several important pieces of data that tell us how the UK economy is performing. Inflation is a measure of how quickly prices are rising for goods and services. A good example of this is if a bottle of milk costs £1 but is £1.05 a year later, then annual milk inflation is 5%. The Bank of England says a series of shocks to the economy has contributed to high inflation figures in recent years. First, the Covid pandemic pushed prices up as more people bought goods - but there were problems getting enough of the goods, particularly those imported from abroad. Second, the war in Ukraine led to large increases in the price of gas and food. Then, a big fall in the number of people available to work meant employers began offering higher wages to job applicants, with many businesses increasing their prices to cover these costs. It is important to understand that even if the inflation rate falls, it does not mean prices are falling - it just means the pace at which they are rising has slowed. You can read more on how inflation is calculated here. Update: Date: 06:17 BST Title: New inflation figures to be released Content: The rate of rising prices - known as inflation - is expected to hold at 3.4% when the Office for National Statistics releases its figures for June at 07:00 BST. The Bank of England's inflation target is 2%, but it has said previously that it expects the number to peak at 3.7% between July and September before eventually falling. Remember, though, that even if today's rate does show a fall from 3.4%, it doesn't mean that prices are going down - just that they are increasing less quickly. Stay with us as we bring you the latest updates, analysis and explain what today's update means for your finances.

House of David Season 2 Will Cost You an Extra $9 to Watch on Prime Video This Fall — Here's Why
If you want to see Season 2 of House of David this fall, you'll have to cough up an additional nine bucks. The faith-based drama will initially be exclusive to Wonder Project subscribers — a new subscription offering exclusively available through Amazon. That means, in addition to your Prime Video subscription, you'll have to pay for Wonder Project, which will cost $8.99/month at launch. More from TVLine TVLine's Performer of the Week: Jonathan Roumie House of David Renewed for Season 2 at Amazon Casting News: Chicago Fire Adds On Call's Brandon Larracuente, Shane Gillis to Host ESPYS and More The subscription-within-a-subscription promises 'over 1,000 hours of highly curated movies and TV series that reflect the company's mission: to entertain the world with courageous stories, inspiring hope and restoring faith in things worth believing in' — but if you don't want all of that, don't worry: exclusivity will eventually lapse, and House of David Season 2 will be available to all Prime Video subscribers at a later date. House of David 'tells the story of the ascent of the biblical figure, David (played by Michael Iskander), who eventually becomes the most renowned and celebrated king of Israel,' according the official logline. 'The series follows the once-mighty King Saul as he falls victim to his own pride. At the direction of God, the prophet Samuel anoints an unlikely, outcast teenager as the new king. As Saul loses his power over his kingdom, David finds himself on a journey to discover and fulfill his destiny, navigating love, loss, and violence in the court of the very man he's destined to replace. As one leader falls, another must rise.' Season 2, meanwhile, 'will follow the aftermath of the battle between David and Goliath and David's rise to the throne. As he navigates palace politics, his family's jealousy, and a growing romance, David steps deeper into his destiny and learns what it means to become a great leader.' House of David was renewed for a second season on March 18, two weeks out from the biblical epic's Season 1 finale, which dropped on Thursday, April 3. The Feb. 27 premiere had reportedly garnered 22 million viewers in its first 17 days of release (though Amazon has not defined how it measures a 'viewer'). 'Jon Erwin and Jon Gunn's compelling creative vision has solidified our belief in the series and we are excited to deliver more of the story to our customers,' Amazon MGM Studios head of television Vernon Sanders said in a statement at the time. 'We look forward to a continued journey with Wonder Project as we further expand our slate to encompass faith-based series.' Added Erwin and Gunn: 'We are humbled by the extraordinary reaction this show has earned from the faith audience worldwide. Thanks to them and our partners at Prime Video and Amazon MGM Studios, Wonder Project will bring more of the Bible and this epic saga to a global audience. Congratulations to our incredible cast and crew.' Will you pay more to binge-watch Season 2 this fall? Or will you be holding out for its eventual wide release? Drop your thoughts in a comment below.

Generational wealth: Dis-Chem founder gifts sons nearly R7 billion in shares
The shares are equivalent to about a 25% stake in Dis-Chem. Dis-Chem founder Ivan Saltzman has taken gifting to a new level as he prepares the next generation of the family to become significant shareholders in the pharmacy group. Accelerating his succession plan, he has handed over 217 shares in the pharmacy to his two sons, Dan and Mark Saltzman. By the end of trading on 19 June, the shares were worth R6.8 billion. The 217 shares gifted to the sons were previously held by Ivlyn Local Investment Holdings (Ivlyn), also founded by Ivan and his wife, Lynette Saltzman. The shares are equivalent to approximately a 25% stake in Dis-Chem. New era for Dis-Chem The news was announced on Friday by the group, which is worth R27 billion. 'Ivan Saltzman is in the process of restructuring his interest in the Dis-Chem share portfolio, which is held through Ivlyn Local Investment Holdings Proprietary Limited. 'This restructuring involves the distribution 217 125 386 ordinary shares. All distributed shares will remain within the Saltzman family, thereby continuing current family ownership,' read the announcement. Ivlyn, before the transaction, held 29.31% of Dis-Chem, and it now holds 4.06%. While Dan and Mark each hold 12.62% of the group. NOW READ: 'No whites' letter cost Dis-Chem hundreds of millions in profit Third son already at Dis-Chem Before the transaction, neither of the two sons held an executive position or a board seat. However, this is expected to change as they become more involved in the group's operation. Another son of the Saltzman family, Saul, has held various positions within the group throughout his entire career and was appointed executive director alongside his father in 2022. Saul already has shares in the group. Dis-Chem was founded in 1978 and listed on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange (JSE) in 2016. 'The transaction will not affect the liquidity of the company's shares traded on the JSE.' Who owns the company? Ivan stepped down as CEO in 2023 after 45 years, succeeded by Rui Morais, who had previously served as the company's CFO. In 2021, the Saltzmans reduced their shareholding in the group from above 50% to 31% through several transactions. 7% was sold to the open market for almost R2 billion to interested investors, and a 3.75% stake was also sold to senior executives, including Morais. In the previous financial year, Ivan received total remuneration of R17 million, while his wife was paid R14 million. Despite Ivan's stepping down in 2023, he and Lynette remain actively involved in the company's operations. Saul was paid a total of R7.9 million.
