We now have growth figures for first whole year in Govt for our socialist overlords.
Q1: 0.7% growth
Q2: 0.2%
Q3: 0.1%
Q4: 0.1%
So they took a turd and have managed to polish it up even more !
At this rate Rachel from Accounts is a certainty for the Nobel Prize in Economics. 👏👏 |

Absolutely diabolical. Although not unexpected with there poor, anti buisness policies..
The have been extremely lucky not not have entered a technical recession in Q3 and Q4 although Q4 is likely to be revised later either up or more likely down. |

Indeed. A real negative spiral now |

"This net zero scam is hurting the country big time. Energy is fuel for growth and without it everything grinds to a halt or near enough. Labour just do not grasp that concept."
Neither, to be fair, did the previous government. |

Don’t forget increased public debt, rising unemployment, rising CVAs and debt orders, increase in personal IVAs and bankruptcy. More businesses closing than opening. Construction sector down to 19 month low. Mortgage repos and rental Evictions both up |

No it wasn't...
Primary Drivers of Growth
Consumer Spending: Remains the "engine" of the US economy, rising at a 3.5% annualised pace in Q3 2025. This was largely fueled by higher-income households spending on healthcare services, international travel, and prescription drugs.
AI and Tech Investment: Artificial intelligence-related spending was a massive contributor, estimated to account for nearly 40% of all growth in 2025. This includes multibillion-dollar outlays by tech giants for data centres and hardware.
Net Exports: Exports surged by 9.6% in Q3 2025, recovering from previous declines, while imports fell significantly. This shift in trade dynamics added roughly 1.6 percentage points to total GDP growth.
Government Spending: Following earlier contractions, federal outlays rebounded by 2.2%, driven heavily by defense spending.

UK Growth is going to be challenging when business stimulus is ignored by the labour government. Reeves has been a very poor Chancellor, but the u-turns approved by Starmer have compounded her incompetence. |

In a different thread you've told us how Trump is a threat to the planet. Now apparently his economy is investing hugely in green tech. 🤔 |

It was you who brought us growth into this thread, but as you have trouble following, renewable investment was big in the US but trump seems to have cancelled that and gone back to coal 🤷♂️
The US green technology market is experiencing rapid expansion, projected to grow at a CAGR of over 20% to reach roughly $73.9 billion by 2030, driven by intense investment in renewables, electric vehicles (EVs), and AI-driven energy efficiency. The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) has acted as a primary catalyst, fueling record-setting investments that reached $239 billion in 2023.
Oh... Btw, my comment about trump in this thread was connected to the appalling state of the UK economy not helped by his tarrifs 🙄 |

There was clearly nothing there unless you where just trolling getting me to read up an entire thread looking for a source that is just not there lol..
I agree buy if anyone disagrees with what I say I am always more then happy to provide the source. You then can make your own mind up if it's credible or not, critique it or maybe even change your view point.
It's notable that the original poster has not come back to defend there claim that some of the highest US growth was "specifically renewable energy" |
