November retail sales up 1.8 percent

LONDON (Reuters) - Retail sales values rose at their slowest annual pace last month since August, held back by food sales where a fall in inflation led to their weakest performance in more than two years, a survey showed on Tuesday. The British Retail Consortium said the value of like-for-like sales rose 1.8 percent in November compared with a year ago. The value of total sales -- which includes new floorspace -- was 4.1 percent higher.
