Spain seems to be growing nicely.

Spain’s economy grew by 0.9% in the second quarter compared to the first, new figures have confirmed.

This is a rise from 0.8% in the first quarter and equates to annual growth of 3.1%.

Great because of a weak £ (caused by Brexit).

Just a speculative guess.

Does great mean better than forecast or just not awful?

Whatever you like. Just a bit of fun. It's only the revised figures in any case.

Boring.

The UK economy grew by 0.3% in the three months to June, in line with initial estimates. This equates to annual growth of 1.7%.
