UK Economy Revision: UK Economy at a Glance

I have put together this one side summary of the key UK macro data for 2009 and 2010 along with a line of brief comment on each.I hope this might be useful in the run up to the exams so that students have some background stats easily available to support their answers and can show the exmainers they are up to speed! The forecasts for 2010 are drawn from the latest economic reviews from PWC, Deloitte and the Treasury’s regular publication of independent forecasts.Attached as a word file
