Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what assessment he has made of the factors effecting the UK's position in the G7 growth table.

Since 2010, our economy has grown for 8 consecutive years and we’ve seen faster growth than France, Italy and Japan over this period. As a result, the UK economy is currently 17.1% larger than it was in 2010, and 10.8% larger than its pre-crisis peak.

The fundamentals of our economy are strong and the independent Office for Budget Responsibility revised up its forecast for cumulative GDP growth at Autumn Budget 2018.
