Manufacturing slowdown continues

Has the recession finally arrived? This is not a question anybody asks in the UK manufacturing sector. Production is down for the fifth straight month. Year-on-year, it is down 1.4 percent.

It is funny how the world works. Banks stop borrowing to each other, the housing bubble bursts, but it is UK manufacturing that really takes the hit. Well, there is nothing like paying for someone else's mistakes.
