That "growth" graph looks like a damped oscillation with a limiting value of zero

nevertheless, with a slight bias toward the positive half... but we need more then a slight bias, a real growth, I do not care even if it is another bubble, but come already ...

Re: Triple Dip

Is it a graph of the value of Suity's BMW?

Surely the value of that car directly correlates to the amount of fuel in it.

UK economy avoids triple-dip recession:

"The Office for National Statistics said its first estimate for gross domestic product (GDP) showed the economy grew 0.3% during the first quarter of 2013."

What is the error tolerance: +/- 0.5% ?

The bankers and those with big mortgages and no/low income need propping up for the next 20 years.

PS Emigration is about the only sensible option for many.

I think owning a smallholding with small carbon footprint would be an alternative.

I love the country, I really do, but you ind the only way to get ahead, is to use every tool at your disposal to minimise what you pay, and that can't be healthy, but after so many years of watching the tax take be wasted on all these hair brained social ventures, I find the only way we'll ever get ahead is to really milk the system, and that's a shame

But we haven't really had any growth or a triple dip, the very minor spikes are akin to a twitching corps on the mortuary slab.

As long as the average 'hard working family™' has -£1.53 left each month after servicing their basic living requirements the recession will continue.

Triple dip means we've at least had some growth. Would a single long dip have been better?

Yes, because criticising Osborne means I love Ed Balls. Go read up on fallacy and logic you thick twunt.

0.3% Wow, margin of error is 0.2% so effectively nothing again. Patient is still not responding. Need cut more waste of space NHS and Public sector managers/staff. (Not Doctors/Nurses).

Given the start of the year we've had, I'd buy into it. Margin of error of 0.2% also means it could be 0.5% growth; these margins have a tendency to operate both ways.

See, the economy is fine after all.

Print £1 Trillion, give it to the banks and get 0.3% growth!
