I do wish they would get it right.
Here is the BBC:
Gross Domestic Product (GDP) grew by 0.2% in the second quarter, according to the Office for National Statistics.And The Telegraph:
So the economists were right – GDP grew just 0.2pc in the second quarter of this year.And The Guardian:
The UK economy grew by 0.2% in the last quarter.And The Independent is even worse:
Britain's economy slowed between April and June after new figures today showed the UK grew by 0.2% in the quarter.What has actually happened is that GDP for the second quarter is 0.2% up on GDP for the first quarter, which is not the same thing at all.
