Uk production is falling. In August it was down over 2 percent year on year.
This number is completely consistent with last week's productivity data, which showed a decline in output per worker. This means that firms are hoarding labour.
That is not going to go on for very long. Soon, we will see a shakeout, and unemployment will rise.
The inevitable consequence of Brown's boom and bust.
