And a chart for the hard of thinking. That's the Index of Production - our manufacturing base - failing to 'collapse'. The fact that we've also grown as global leaders in financial services does not mean that industry has gone away |
None of which negates my point that the economy is no longer manufacturing based. It's also worth remembering that a lot of UK produced goods rely on imported parts, so prices will have to rise in line with the cost of those parts.
