DescriptionTotal UK retail sales have fallen in consecutive months for the first time in at least 13 years, a closely-watched survey has found.

Sales in November fell 0.4% from a year earlier, said the latest British Retail Consortium KPMG Retail Sales Monitor.

Following a 0.1% decline in October, it was the first drop in the annual rate over two months since the survey was first released in January 2005.

The report said retailers were now facing a "nerve-wracking Christmas".
