    Abstract

    With unemployment having now passed the critical 3 million level there is intense pressure on the Chancellor to adopt a more reflationary stance in the coming Budget. Even within the confines of the present strategy there appears to be some scope for a limited expansion. This review of UK and world economic data will appraise recent economic performance and make predictions about future economic prospects.
