Vicky Pryce: business correspondent on the UK GDP going up by 0.4 percent

from Best of Business · host Newstalk ZB

The UK's GDP grew by 0.4 percent in July, surprising economists after no growth was predicted. The economic growth was driven by several key sectors, and boosted by more businesses investing in AI and data centres. Business correspondent Vicky Pryce says the World Cup also helped contribute to the growth, with more people spending money in pubs and restaurants over the July period.
