Re: Uk in Recession.

Hi

This recession is not over, it is only just beginning.

The UK is a Serviced based Economy, so travel and Tourism is a big issue.

Re: Uk in Recession.

Forget negative growth, a recession should be judged by the length of the queue, to the Soup Kitchen.

Not sure what they were called but I do remember a free soup and hot food shop in the street next to where we lived before moving out of Manchester.

AFAIK the place in the next street was free. I THINK it was run by the Quakers (Society of Friends). A group of people that admire greatly.

Heaven forbid real hard times never return, a blip on a balance sheet is Ok, damage limitation.

Re: Uk in Recession.

So do I, but, that belief for me has been there for many years, not just a reaction to present circumstances, something will trigger it, based on previous assumptions, maybe not this crisis.
