The UK economy shrank in May, partly because of the extra bank holiday for the King's Coronation.
This followed a rally of 0.2% in April, the Office for National Statistics said.
In May, the manufacturing and construction industries fell as some industries were hit by a fewer working days than normal.
The cost of living and increasing interest rates continue to put pressure on households and businesses.
The ONS said the UK's economy had shown no growth for the three months to May.
While an extra bank holiday had an impact on economic growth in May, high inflation still remains a drag anchor on economic growth, Chancellor Jeremy Hunt said.
By reducing inflation as quickly as possible, the best way to get growth going again and ease the pressure on families is to bring inflation down as quickly as possible. The ONS also said that pubs and bars saw sales drop after a strong April.
The health sector recovered, while the IT industry had a robust month.
