British consumers picked up the pace of their spending in June for the second month running, the first back-to-back increases in over a year, a survey showed on Monday, another sign that the economy is past its weak start to 2018.
Payment firm Visa said inflation-adjusted spending on its credit and debit cards was 0.7 percent higher than in June last year, helped by warm weather and the soccer World Cup, following a 0.9 percent increase in May.
