Economic Growth

[Thor]

Nice to see that we did not follow Germany into recession with recorded growth of 0.4% which is welcomed. It also represents a decent swing from the last quarter and if we Americanise the numbers is 2.4% annually. That would be very good when you consider parliament is broken right now.

On top of this unemployment is likely to remain held at 3.9%

Wage growth at 3.8% is also welcomed.

Things look quite good from a numbers perspective.

[Ronnie Hotdogs]

Worked out who you’re votin*g for yet?

[Thor]

Not yet, might do green as she’s admitted to long haul flights so it must be ok for us all to do it!

Could you explain how 0.4 annualised = 2.4?

[Thor]

.6 growth over the last period x 4

[Adz]

.6 growth over the last period x 4

You said .4? Plus a quick google says 0.3, so a 1.2 annualised rate. Or did I miss a us joke there?

Once the numbers are properly finalised the 0.3 growth won't exist.

I think sightings of the Yeti are more reliable than the unemployment figures.

I do believe they are the ones the last labour government put in place to record such people.

I agree theres probably a few million on incapacity benefit or some such benefit.

It's completely irrelevant what you believe. It's FACTS I want to hear about.

Incapacity Benefit hasn't existed since 2008 you pillock!

Eh? Doesn't that make the last 6 months = +.0.2?

[F*ck The Poor & Fat]

That we are arguing about the real size of growth over a period is nice. Decent figures brings out the nit-pickers who can’t take it.

You all appear to have missed my non working link above.

Yeah nice one! Lovely person you are. For the record I dont know what any benefit is called as fortunately I've never needed any of them.

Have a nice evening.
