UK Economy to be Worse Before it gets Better, Warns chancellor

After figures revealed that the economy decreased further between August and October of 2022, UK chancellor Jeremy Hunt stated that the UK economy will get worse before it gets better. As rising costs impacted families and businesses, the economy contracted by 0.3% over the course of the three months, and the nation is expected to enter a recession.

These figures, according to Jeremy Hunt, confirm that the global economic situation is extremely challenging and will get worse before it gets better. Over the course of these three months, the UK’s major businesses, including development, production, and administrations, experienced declines in the financial climate.

Jeremy Chase added that the UK was at that point in downturn, and official affirmation is guessed when financial information for October to December 2022 are delivered toward the start of 2023.

It is a sign that a nation’s economy is seriously doing well when it is experiencing a downturn. When things are bad, many businesses usually make less money, which makes it harder for students to get their first job after graduation and makes more people unemployed.

The Bank of England (BOE) recently stated that the UK is experiencing its longest decline since records began, and the BOE anticipates that the recession will continue into 2023 and the first half of 2024.
