Britain’s economy grew THREE TIMES faster than the Eurozone — despite ‘worrying slide in business investment’

It’s the fastest rate since late 2016 and compares with 0.2 per cent for the Eurozone. France achieved 0.4 per cent. The figures came a day after the European Commission said the UK would be the sick man of Europe over the next two years – with the slowest growth of any country across the Continent. Speaking from a visit to a Fuller’s brewery, Chancellor Philip Hammond insisted the figures were “proof of the underlying strength in our economy”. He said: “We are building an economy that works for everyone.

And while household spending in the third quarter rose, business investment dropped by 1.2 per cent. City experts blamed the “Brexit paralysis”.
